Martha McSally Stands with Southern
Arizonans
Ron Barber Divides voters into Political
Parties
Tucson - This morning, Martha McSally responded to Ron
Barber's announcement of his Republicans for Barber coalition.
"While
Ron Barber would like to separate us all into Republican versus Democrat, I
chose to look at all of us as Southern Arizonans in this together for the future
of our country," said Martha McSally. "This kind of divide and conquer behavior
is typical of Washington politicians and is exactly why Republicans, Democrats,
Independents and everyone in between are joining our campaign to provide
leadership regardless of Party and solutions regardless of credit. These are
tough times and we are dealing with real problems, the people of Southern
Arizona deserve better than these petty politics of division."
"For
someone who votes with Nancy Pelosi and Washington Democrats 89% of the time,
it's no wonder that Congressman Barber would run to a few Republicans and claim
a bi-partisan mantel," said McSally Campaign Manager Bruce Harvie. "The voters
in Southern Arizona won't be fooled. They know Ron Barber is a Washington
politician that would rather attack a war hero like Martha McSally than talk
about his record in Congress. Leaders don't call all Republicans rich white
men, leaders don't divide the nation into Republican and Democrat - leaders
stand up for all individuals and fight for what is right. That's why Ron
Barber's time in Washington will end in 25 days."
Amy
Wilson, a registered Democrat in the 2nd District had this to say about Martha
McSally:
"As a
Democrat I'm proud to support Martha McSally. She is the only candidate with the
leadership skills and dedication to work across party lines to fight for real
solutions for Southern Arizona."
Martha
McSally is the first female fighter pilot to fly in combat, and first to command
a fighter squadron in combat in United States history. In 2001-2002, Martha
McSally earned national recognition for successfully overturning a military
policy requiring all U.S. servicewomen to wear Muslim clothing when off base in
Saudi Arabia.
