'We are facing a national security and a humanitarian crisis on our southern border.'
Iowa Republican state Sen. Zach Nunn, who is running against Rep. Cindy Axne in the Hawkeye State’s Third Congressional District, slammed his opponent for claiming his stance on border security and protecting the southern border is “racist” and “wrong.”
“We talked to Customs and Border Patrol; my opponent would call them racist, one of the most diverse agencies in the federal government today,” he explained to“Communities like mine have seen an influx of illegal drugs, primarily deadly fentanyl, that now kills more Americans ages 18 to my age than anything else in the country. Well, if we try to stop it, then we must be racist.”
“This is what Zach Nunn said, he’s ‘working to secure the border to stop the flood of illegal immigrants bringing crime and drugs into our country.’ We cannot have people like that in the highest levels of government in this country who automatically believe that folks who are from another place are criminals,” Axne“That is absolutely racist and wrong,” she continued. “It sets a terrible precedent for citizens in this country to think badly about other folks when it’s not true.
Nunn is looking to unseat Axne in the upcoming midterm elections, which would not only make the Hawkeye State a solid Republican-represented state if the other GOP candidates successfully hold onto their seats but also help the House Republicans in the party’s larger goal of regaining the majority in the House.
