RNC Chairman Priebus Statement On Republicans Winning A Majority In The Louisiana State Senate

Posted by: Michael Short

WASHINGTON – Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Reince Priebus released the following statement today in response to Republicans winning a majority in the Louisiana State Senate for the first time since Reconstruction:

“I want to personally congratulate Jonathan Perry on his successful bid for the Louisiana State Senate. His historic victory this evening gives Republicans a majority in both houses of the Louisiana state legislature for the first time since Reconstruction. Tonight’s election shows that Louisiana voters trust Republicans to have the adult conversations necessary to get our country’s fiscal house in order and just how far Democrats have distanced themselves with their failed leadership and liberal tax-borrow-spend agenda.”
