DSCC Statement Congratulating Senator-Elect Andrews

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee (DSCC) Chair Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand released the following statement congratulating Senator-Elect Dr. Annie Andrews, the first Democrat to win a Senate seat in South Carolina in nearly 30 years:

“Congratulations to Senator-Elect Andrews on her historic victory, becoming the first Democrat elected to the Senate from South Carolina in nearly three decades, and we are ready to get to work with her to lower costs and take on corruption. As a pediatrician and a mom, Annie has dedicated her life to caring for South Carolina’s children and its families. She’s spent 20 years on the front lines of America’s broken health care system and seen the challenges firsthand – and she’ll stop at nothing to fix it. Annie isn’t afraid of a fight, and in the Senate, she will give South Carolinians the voice they deserve.”
