Today, Rep. Michelle Steel (CA-45) lost her re-election bid for Congress. In response, American Bridge spokesperson Matilda Bress released the following statement:
“Until the bitter end, Michelle Steel ran a vile, red-baiting campaign that lied directly to voters’ faces about her rabid anti-abortion and anti-IVF record. Orange County saw through the deception and voted against Michelle Steel’s extremism and corruption. Farewell, MAGA Michelle – even Elon Musk couldn’t save you. American Bridge is proud to have played a role in helping defeat this crooked congresswoman.”
