On Tuesday, Club for Growth PAC announced it was giving its endorsement to U.S. Rep. Barry Moore (R-Enterprise) for reelection in Alabama’s second congressional district.
In a statement released earlier on Wednesday, Moore offered his appreciation for the Club for Growth endorsement.
“Since being sworn in almost twelve months ago, I’ve worked night and day for the people of the Wiregrass, keeping the promises I made to be transparent, put their interests first, and fight the Washington establishment that always wants to spend more hard-earned taxpayer dollars and erode our God-given rights,” Moore said in a statement.
“Washington needs more public servants with callouses on their hands, and it’s an honor to bring to Washington our Alabama values and the work ethic I learned growing up on my family farm, serving in the National Guard, and making a living as a small business owner,” he added. I appreciate Club for Growth for their endorsement and for recognizing that I am already doing the job the people I serve elected me to do.”
For now, Moore appears to be unopposed on the Republican primary ballot. However, Inside Alabama Politics speculated Moore’s 2020 GOP runoff opponent Jeff Coleman could mount another run against Moore.
