Democratic governors are leading in the fight against Donald Trump. With our two historic victories in Virginia and New Jersey, grassroots momentum is on our side! But this year, nearly 80% of the country is voting for a governor – and with Republicans already investing to beat Dem govs, early support has never been so critical. Will you donate to elect more Democratic governors who will defend our rights and freedoms and stand up to Trump?
DGA Statement on Governor Henry McMaster’s Slow Response to Trump’s Offshore Drilling Plan
Today, Governor Henry McMaster finally requested a meeting with the Trump Administration regarding their plan to drill off the coast of South Carolina. McMaster, who claims to have a close relationship with President Trump, waited days to request a meeting about the proposed drilling, which was first announced last Thursday.
“After days of silence and inaction, Governor McMaster finally woke up to the threat of Trump’s offshore drilling plan,” said DGA Deputy Press Secretary Alex Japko. “Instead of proactively taking steps to stand up for his state, McMaster was caught flat-footed. South Carolina voters deserve to know why Florida got a carveout and not South Carolina. South Carolina families have very little to show for Governor McMaster’s unquestioning loyalty to President Trump.”
