Arlington, VA – Protecting Americans Action Fund Chairman and Arkansas Attorney General Tim Griffin issued the following statement in response to breaking news that Hennepin County District Attorney Mary Moriarty will not seek a second term:
“Hennepin County District Attorney Mary Moriarty is a textbook example of a George and Alex Soros-backed prosecutor who campaigned on criminal justice reform but used her time in office to pursue a radical agenda. She prosecuted law enforcement, turned a blind eye when a liberal government employee vandalized Tesla vehicles, and approached her job with a ‘criminal-first, victim-last’ mindset. Moriarty was one of our top targets to defeat because Protecting Americans Action Fund is committed to supporting prosecutors who uphold the law and stand with victims of crime. We will continue to monitor the Hennepin County race, and others across the country, where the Soros network is trying to elect unqualified, liberal social activists who refuse to enforce our laws.”
