Statement from FDP Chair Terrie Rizzo on Adam Putnam Supporting and Fundraising Off Of Children Being Ripped From Their Parents

Amidst bipartisan condemnation of the Trump Administration’s cruel family separation policy, Adam Putnam today sent a fundraising email praising Donald Trump’s immigration policies — saying “President Trump has led the way with his aggressive agenda on illegal immigration” and “I’m proud to support the President’s agenda.” Below is a statement from FDP Chair Terrie Rizzo:

“This is morally reprehensible. Adam Putnam doesn’t just support separating families — he is actually trying to make money off of it. There’s nothing more terrifying than children being forcibly taken from their parents. It’s beyond despicable that Adam Putnam would exploit a shameful tragedy to fill his campaign coffers.”
