Statement from Massachusetts AG Maura Healey and Nevada AG Aaron Ford, Co-Chairs of the Democratic Attorneys General Association

“The focus and energy Jaime Harrison will bring as Chair of the Democratic Party is exactly where we need to be right now. Harrison knows we must celebrate the hard-fought wins of 2020, but also that we must use that momentum to push us forward as a party, and as a country. That work starts in the states—and we look toward to a strong partnership with the new leadership at the DNC to win big in state Attorney General races in 2021, 2022, and beyond.”

Statement from Sean Rankin, Executive Director of the Democratic Attorneys General Association

“Jaime Harrison is a seasoned political operative who showed his political prowess as the Chair of the South Carolina Democratic Party and his fundraising chops as a candidate for U.S. Senate in 2020.”

“Harrison knows what it takes to compete and win in traditionally red states. We look forward to working with him, his leadership team, and the new Democratic National Committee to earn people’s vote and compete in every state.”
