LCV Victory Fund Statement on Robert F. Kennedy’s Announcement Of Nicole Shanahan as Running Mate
Washington, D.C.– In response to Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. announcing Nicole Shanahan as his running mate for his Presidential candidacy, LCV Victory Fund released the following statement from David Willett, Senior Vice President of Communications:
“With a campaign based on shifting positions, switching parties, and pushing harmful and debunked conspiracy theories, it’s clear that Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. and Nicole Shanahan cannot be trusted to protect the environment and our communities, much less win an election. We’ve seen Kennedy time and time again tarnish his past work by spreading misinformation about science and climate change in ways that are harmful for the health and safety of people across the country. To make matters worse, Kennedy’s campaign-hopping clearly demonstrates that he is willing to do anything to get ballot access, including cozying up to the ultra-rich, embracing climate deniers, and flip flopping on his policy stances. But ultimately the only thing he’s doing is helping Trump’s candidacy. He said himself just today that ‘our campaign is a spoiler.’ In stark contrast, the Biden administration has done more than any administration in history to confront the climate crisis – and is doing so in ways that create jobs and lower costs.”
