Three Republicans who will be representing Florida in Congress for the first time next month signed a letter led by incoming U.S. Rep. Kat Cammack, R-Fla., and incoming U.S. Rep. Michelle Fischbach, R-Minn., calling for U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., to investigate the 2020 elections.
Cammack rounded up more than two dozen Republicans who were elected to the House for the first time last month. Two other Republicans from the Sunshine State–incoming U.S. Reps. Byron Donalds and Scott Franklin–also signed the letter.
“The American people deserve answers. We must have confidence in our elections. Anything less is unacceptable,” Cammack said.
Earlier this week, Cammack announced she will serve as the freshman steering representative for the Republican Study Committee (RSC) as she gets ready to assume her seat next month.
Cammack helped pull off one of the largest upsets in recent Florida politics when she steered Ted Yoho to a win over longtime U.S. Rep. Cliff Stearns, R-Fla., back in 2012. After working for Yoho, Cammack ran for his seat after he kept his promise to serve only four terms in Congress. Cammack will represent parts of Northeast Florida with a district stretching from Clay County outside of Jacksonville to parts of Gainesville.
