RNLA Chair Calls on Senate to Seat Massachusetts Senator-Elect
Today, RNLA Chair David Norcross called on Senate Democrat Leader Harry Reid to seat Senator-elect Scott Brown immediately:
"Senator-elect Scott Brown should be seated today. Brown's victory over Martha Coakley was decisive and demonstrates that the people of Massachusetts want change. In fact, polling shows vast majorities of voters in Massachusetts want Brown seated immediately. Brown's margin of victory is insurmountable; he leads by more votes than the amount of absentee ballots mailed. Moreover, there is precedent to seat Brown immediately, most notably with the special election of Ted Kennedy to the same Senate seat in 1962. The U.S. Senate should put aside the partisan politics that were rejected by the voters in Massachusetts and heed the will of the people by seating Brown without delay."
