WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Congresswoman Debbie Lesko (AZ-08) released the following statement on the arraignment of President Donald J. Trump:

“It is a sad day for our nation. Democrats will stop at nothing to go after President Trump. This case is weak and yet another political witch hunt to unjustly attack him. This is an egregious abuse of power from liberal New York District Attorney Alvin Bragg, who campaigned on going after President Trump. Bragg has brought trumped-up charges that baselessly claim there was intent to commit another crime without naming that crime to turn these charges into felonies. The Federal Election Commission and federal prosecutors at the Department of Justice already decided not to pursue this case. This is a sham indictment meant to score political points and weaponize our judicial system to help Democrats win another election.”
