U.S. Senator Tom Cotton announced that he has endorsed Katie Britt for senator. Cotton is a senator from Arkansas who currently serves on the Senate Committees on Armed Services, Intelligence, and the Judiciary.

Cotton initially announced his support for Britt in a tweet, calling her “a conservative fighter who puts American workers
first, supports the RAISE Act, and will stand up to the Chinese Communist Party.”

In a statement, Cotton said, “We need more leaders like Katie Britt in the U.S. Senate — leaders who defend our rights,
stand strong for the rule of law, and put Americans first. I’m fighting hard to stop the liberal mob, hold Biden’s incompetent White House accountable, and secure our border,” Cotton outlined. “Katie is a tough conservative fighter who will put Americans first. She’ll work with me to protect our values and to stop Democrats from permanently changing our country.”

Britt expressed gratitude for Cotton’s endorsement.

“I am honored to have Senator Tom Cotton’s endorsement and am grateful for his support,” Britt stated. “Senator Cotton is a rock-ribbed conservative champion in the U.S. Senate for upholding law and order, standing up to China, ending Joe Biden’s border crisis, supporting peace through strength, combatting inflation, and ensuring American workers and families come first. As Alabama’s next U.S. Senator, I’ll proudly work with Senator Cotton to fight for these important priorities and defend our Christian conservative values.”

Britt, a first time candidate, is endorsed by the Home Builders Association of Alabama, the Alabama Farmers Federation’s FarmPAC, the Alabama Retail Association, Manufacture Alabama, the Automobile Dealers Association of Alabama, the Alabama Forestry Association, the Associated Builders and Contractors of Alabama, the League of Southeastern Credit Unions, the Alabama Restaurant and Hospitality Association, University of Alabama Crimson Tide legend Siran Stacy, Mobile Mayor Sandy Stimpson, and the Alabama Mining Association.

The Alabama primary runoff is June 21, 2022.
