With Endorsement of Rubio, Toomey’s True Colors Show Through

Feb 03, 2016

American Bridge 21st Century President Jessica Mackler released the following statement on Senator Pat Toomey’s endorsement of GOP presidential candidate Marco Rubio:

“Senator Pat Toomey’s true colors show through with his endorsement of Marco Rubio. Sen. Rubio’s far-right positions on issues like common sense gun safety legislation, women’s health, and earned benefits are a reflection of Sen. Toomey’s own extremism. On gun safety, by supporting a candidate that voted against and blasted his namesake legislation, Sen. Toomey has proven that he lacks the leadership to fight for Manchin-Toomey. Sen. Toomey can try to mislead voters, but it’s clear that both he and Sen. Rubio are too beholden to the gun lobby to keep our communities and families safe. The Keystone state deserves better than Pat Toomey, who has voted with Washington Republicans 94% of the time to defund Planned Parenthood, gut social security, and shutdown the government.”
