2016 AK Senate race: on Immigration


Joe Miller: End Barack Obama's illegal amnesty

The news of Alaska Senator Dan Sullivan's endorsement of Lisa Murkowski's re-election campaign was met with strong condemnation from 2014 rival Joe Miller. "From supporting Planned Parenthood's federally funded abortions, to continuing Barack Obama's illegal amnesty and funding Obamacare, Lisa Murkowski's loyalty lies with DC cronies and political insiders rather than the people of Alaska. Senator Dan Sullivan's endorsement of Lisa Murkowski is a betrayal of everything Alaska conservatives hold dear," continued Miller. "Dan told us he was a conservative. He told us he shared our Tea Party values. He told us he was a fighter who would confront the Obama administration. Now he has endorsed one of Barack Obama and Harry Reid's chief enablers."

Joe Miller concluded: "Dan Sullivan needs to be reminded that we have enough talkers in the Senate. All talk, no action won't cut it. Talk is cheap. Sadly, it appears Dan has abandoned Alaska conservatives for the DC Cartel."
