Ted Budd: “Today is really about one party single- handedly canceling a Member of the other party because of something said before…”

“Today is really about one party single- handedly canceling a Member of the other party because of something said before that Member was even elected. This isn't about agreeing or disagreeing with the comments. This is about Democrats abusing their power and using it to cancel. This sets a very dangerous precedent. There are Members across the aisle who have said alarming things recently. They have made anti- Semitic comments repeatedly. They have made anti-American comments repeatedly. And they have made comments threatening violence repeatedly. Cancel culture should not take over our country. Cancel culture should not take over our tech platforms. And cancel culture certainly should not take over the House of Representatives. We need to let the gentlewoman from Georgia serve and to allow her constituents to judge her performance at the ballot box.”
