DGA Chair Gov. Andy Beshear Statement on Doug Jones Becoming the Democratic Nominee in Alabama

DGA Chair Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear released the following statement on Doug Jones securing the Democratic nomination for governor in Alabama:

"Congratulations to my friend Doug Jones on becoming the Democratic nominee for governor in Alabama. Doug has spent his career fighting to do what is right for the people of Alabama - no matter how difficult. As Governor, he will expand Medicaid, drive innovation, lower costs, and ensure that everyone has a fair shot to succeed. After decades of one-party rule that has benefited insiders at the expense of hardworking families, Doug will finally put the state government back on the side of the people of Alabama. Doug has always fought to make Alabamians' lives better, and that is why I am proud to support his campaign."
