Less Than Three Months Out From Election Day, Derek Merrin Is Vacationing With Extremist Mike Johnson In Wyoming

Once again, Derek Merrin is cozying up to Washington extremists - this time, campaigning alongside Speaker Mike Johnson in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.

Johnson has spent this year prioritizing an extreme agenda, including pushing for a national abortion ban without exceptions, threatening cuts to Social Security and Medicare, and supporting the repeal of the Affordable Care Act.

Meanwhile, Merrin is making it clear that he would rather blindly follow his party bosses and their extreme agenda than listen to the needs of voters.

DCCC Spokesperson Aidan Johnson:
"With less than 90 days until the election, Derek Merrin is busy vacationing with Mike Johnson in Wyoming. Merrin has spent his entire campaign in the pocket of someone who wants to ban abortion nationwide and gut seniors' hard earned benefits, and now he's not even pretending to care about working families in Northwest Ohio."
