Currently, Florida U.S. Rep. Matt Gaetz is under investigation for sexual relationships with a 17-year-old girl and child sex trafficking. This is incredibly concerning. Why has my congresswoman stayed silent on this issue?
In September 2020, Ashley Hinson ran a campaign ad on her record targeting sexual predators in Iowa. It states. “In the Iowa State House, I wrote the law to hold bad teachers accountable for misconduct. In Congress, I will fight every day for our kids to learn in a safe and positive environment.” Protecting our children from predators extends beyond the walls of a school.
Where is the accountability for Gaetz? If she wants to hold predators accountable, why isn’t she leading the charge to hold Gaetz accountable? Hinson needs to speak out on this and uphold her campaign promise to fight for our children.
