JEFFERSON CITY, MO — The Missouri Republican Party congratulates Josh Hawley on becoming the Republican nominee for United States Senate, and looks forward to working together to fire Claire.

“The Missouri Republican Party congratulates Josh Hawley on winning the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate, and we’re excited to work with him heading into November. Josh is a constitutional conservative who shares our values and will fight tirelessly for President Trump’s America First agenda, including supporting Judge Kavanaugh’s nomination to the Supreme Court and working to crack down on rampant illegal immigration. That makes him a nightmare for elitist liberals like Claire McCaskill,” said Chris Nuelle, a spokesperson for the Missouri Republican Party.

Nuelle continued, “Josh’s deep Missouri roots, commitment to defending the Second Amendment and unborn life, and promise to aid President Trump once in office are in stark contrast with Claire McCaskill, who has consistently proven through her Beverly Hills fundraisers, self-enrichment with government subsidies, and obstruction of President Trump that she is completely out of touch with Missourians. With the strength and size of our grassroots network continuously growing and a coalition of Republicans across the state behind us, Claire’s days as a Senator are numbered, and we look forward to having strong conservative Josh Hawley as the next Senator from the Show-Me state.”
