NSDP Statement on Ensign Resignation

Las Vegas, NV – Nevada State Democratic Party Communications Director Zach Hudson released the following statement on the news that John Ensign is resigning from the U.S. Senate:

“Nevada needs a Senator who is focused on creating jobs and protecting our middle class, not ending Medicare as we know it and giving more tax breaks to the rich, like Dean Heller is trying to do. Democrats remain committed to electing the kind of Junior Senator Nevada deserves – one who puts the interests of middle class Nevadans first.”
