Alabama Republican Party (ALGOP) Chairman Terry Lathan issued the following statement on Senator Doug Jones’ Re-Election Kick-Off :
“Senator Doug Jones claims to be for ‘One Alabama’ but during his short tenure he’s proven the only one he’s listening to is himself. Time and again he keeps ignoring the will of the majority of Alabamians – who overwhelmingly support President Trump and the administration’s agenda – by defiantly voting NO on the President’s nominees and policies:
- July 9, 2019 – Voted NO on the nomination of Daniel Bress to the U.S. Court of Appeals, Ninth Circuit
- May 1, 2019 – Voted NO on the nomination of Alabama Solicitor General Andrew Brasher to the U.S. District Court
- April 11, 2019 – Voted NO President Trump’s nominee for Interior Secretary
- March 14, 2019 – Voted NO on the President’s Emergency Declaration funding the border wall with Mexico
- February 28, 2019 – Voted NO on Andrew Wheeler as head of the Environmental Protection Agency
- January 24, 2019 – Voted NO to end the government shutdown
- January 17, 2019 – Voted NO on banning the use of federal funds for abortions
- October 6, 2018 – Voted NO on Brett Kavanaugh as U.S. Supreme Court Justice
- May 17, 2018 – Voted NO on Gina Haspel for C.I.A. Director
- February 15, 2018 – Voted NO on the White House immigration proposal
- January 29, 2018 – Voted NO on banning abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy
“Senator Jones should rename his motto ‘One and Done for Alabama’. We are confident the voters of our great state will reset this seat with a Republican on November 3, 2020.”
Mrs. Terry Lathan
Chairman, Alabama Republican Party
