Moreno Opposed “Most Conservative Border Bill In Decades,” Backed By Border Patrol Agents

Columbus, OH – After Bernie Moreno opposed “the most conservative border bill in decades” – despite the bill being backed by border patrol agents – Ohioans are seeing that Moreno is “not a serious person” who would rather talk tough than do what is right for Ohioans.

What Ohioans are reading about Moreno’s opposition to “the most conservative border bill in decades” backed by border patrol agents:

Politico: “…Republican Senate candidates, from Kari Lake in Arizona to Bernie Moreno in Ohio, came out against it. Sen. Gary Peters (D-Mich.), who chairs the Senate Democrats’ campaign arm, said ‘This will hurt them on election night.’”

WCMH: “Moreno drew criticism from the Ohio Democratic Party on border security. First, an ad targeted Moreno for not supporting the bipartisan border security bill that was blocked by Senate Republicans. Then, a mobile billboard in Dayton used similar language.”

Cleveland.com: “The Ohio Democratic Party also launched a web ad this week calling attention to Moreno’s opposition to the recent Senate bipartisan border security legislation…”

Punchbowl News: “The Ohio Democratic Party is running a new digital ad hitting GOP Senate frontrunner Bernie Moreno for his opposition to the now-dead bipartisan border bill. Moreno, like many Republicans nationwide, came out against the bill negotiated by Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.).”

Ohio Capital Journal: “The U.S. Senate is bringing forward this week the biggest bipartisan immigration deal and border crackdown this country has seen since Ronald Reagan and Tip O’Neill, and Bernie Moreno…called it an ‘abomination’ before the details of the deal were even released. This is not a serious person.”

HuffPost: “Bernie Moreno, a businessman and Trump-backed candidate for Senate in Ohio, told voters in Vermillion on Jan. 13 that the bill was an ‘abomination.’”
