The following statement is attributable to Senator Ed Markey:

“Seth Moulton tonight sunk to a reprehensible new low in this race with a disgusting, desperate Trumpian lie. It is a desperate attempt to distract from a new report that revealed how he is making millions of dollars off investments with defense companies before his congressional committee. This is the lowest of the low and a pathetic smear that is not worthy of this or any race.”

“Let’s be clear: Seth Moulton used sexual assault and human trafficking victims to score cheap political points tonight. I stand with victims of sexual assault and human trafficking. When pushed for specifics on his outrageous allegation, Seth Moulton had nothing to offer. Absolutely pathetic.”
