Jill Biden Has A Lot To Learn About Maine

AUGUSTA, ME-- Maine Republican Party Chair, Dr. Demi Kouzounas, release the following statement regarding Dr. Jill Biden's campaign stop in Maine:

" "For someone who touts a Doctorate in Education, I’m going to have to school Dr. Jill Biden here," said Dr. Demi Kouzounas.

"Dr. Biden wants to hold a small business economic roundtable, but it was the Obama – Biden Administration that led the slowest economic recovery in modern times- in their administration Maine lost 4,400 manufacturing jobs alone. Even Barack Obama admitted that their initiative "had fallen short." Meanwhile, under Senator Susan Collins’ Paycheck Protection Program, more than 28,000 Maine small businesses received nearly 2.3 billion in loans, saving more than 255,000 Maine jobs."

"As for her sudden interest in our great fishing industry, I hate to inform Dr. Biden that she is late to class. President Trump and Governor Paul LePage have been tireless advocates for our great fishermen and women, they don’t just show up to the roundtable- they take action. Last month, President Trump worked to end the Obama – Biden era European Union’s tariffs of up to 8% on Maine lobsters, and up to 20% on Maine lobster products, leading to even Chellie Pingree, Jared Golden and Angus King applauding President Trump."
