End Citizens United (ECU) and Let America Vote (LAV) President Tiffany Muller released the following statement congratulating Theresa Greenfield on winning the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate in Iowa:
“Small dollar donors and grassroots energy powered Theresa Greenfield’s victory tonight in a preview of what’s to come in November. Senator Ernst lied to Iowans when she said she would go to Washington to ‘make ‘em squeal.’ Instead, Senator Ernst is embroiled in campaign finance scandals and has taken over $1.7 million dollars from corporate PACs over the course of her brief political career. Theresa Greenfield will be a Senator for Iowans and rejecting corporate PAC money means she can roll up her sleeves and do the work Senator Ernst refuses to do to lower health care and prescription drug costs. We’re proud to stand with Theresa heading into November.”
ECU and LAV endorsed Theresa Greenfield in July 2019 because of her commitment to ending corruption in Washington. The reform group has four million members nationwide, including 27,700 in Iowa, and is entirely grassroots-funded with an average donation of just $14.
