McCormick’s Investments in Chinese Fentanyl on Display in New SMP Ads
Tomorrow, Pennsylvanians will see two new TV ads, titled “Killer” and “Buck,” that highlight how Dave McCormick profited from Chinese fentanyl that is now pouring across the border and ravaging communities across the Commonwealth.
McCormick’s fentanyl investments followed by his opposition to bipartisan legislation that would help stop the flow of fentanyl over the border, paint a clear picture of where the hedge fund CEO’s loyalties lie – and they certainly aren’t with Pennsylvanians.
“Dave McCormick invested in Chinese fentanyl and then opposed a measure that would curb the flow of Chinese fentanyl across the border. A lot of things are complicated, but this is simple: Dave McCormick only cares about himself,” said Sarah Guggenheimer, SMP Spokesperson. “Pennsylvanians deserve better than a reckless, self-serving Connecticut multimillionaire for a senator who only ever put his bottom line first.”
