Soros-backed Super PAC rides to the rescue for Angie Craig

Well, Angie Craig’s liberal allies are beginning to pour money into Minnesota to save her campaign.

Today, the LCV Victory Fund, a liberal Super PAC backed by billionaire donors like George Soros, announced it would target Minnesota’s 2nd Congressional District, as part of the $1 million it plans to spend on House races. This development should come as no surprise given Craig’s status as the hand-picked candidate of the Washington liberal elite.

LCV Victory Fund is dedicated to electing candidates like Angie Craig who support their extreme, anti-energy agenda. Among their pet projects is the EPA’s Clean Power Plan, which would jeopardize thousands of Minnesota jobs with its drastic regulations.

NRCC Comment: “Angie Craig is the hand-picked candidate of Nancy Pelosi and the Washington liberal elite, so it should come as no surprise that a Super PAC backed by liberal billionaires like George Soros has come to her aid. Angie Craig’s support for job-killing energy policies may have endeared her to the liberal Super PAC community, but shows that she is out of touch with voters in the 2nd District.” – NRCC Spokesman Bob Salera
