NRCC Releases New Ad Calling on Jared Golden to Stand Up to Democrats’ Anti-Police Platform

April 26, 2021

The NRCC released a new paid digital ad today calling on Jared Golden to stand up to Democrats’ efforts to defund the police.  

NRCC Comment: “Jared Golden was silent when Rashida Tlaib demanded an end to policing and incarceration, and even voted against censuring Maxine Waters for encouraging anti-law enforcement protestors to engage in violence. Maine voters can’t trust Jared Golden to stand with law enforcement and keep them safe.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Samantha Bullock  

Background: 

Michigan Democrat Representative Rashida Tlaib called for an end to policing and incarceration and California Democrat Representative Maxine Waters called for protestors to get “more confrontational.”  

Jared Golden voted to kill a resolution censuring Representative Waters for her widely-condemned remarks.
