(Photo\/Butch Dill, File)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN NEWSROOM<br \/>UPDATED 2:03 PM PT \u2013 Monday, June 20 2022<\/h5>\n<p>Trump-endorsed Katie Britt (R) made her final plea to voters. She made her case for why she is the best candidate to serve as US Senate seat in Alabama and aimed to take on Washington elites. As she spoke to Breitbart News, the Trump-backed candidate stressed she will fight for the hardworking people of the Cotton State.<\/p>\n<p>Britt said she has shifted along with Republican voters from a party run by big business to a party run by the people. She lamented, people in Washington don\u2019t get the struggles of the average American.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cI think these career politicians just don\u2019t get it anymore,\u201d expressed Britt. They\u2019ve been there too long and they just don\u2019t understand what hard working people are going through. People cannot afford gas. We must become not only energy independent, but energy dominant. Every dollar the government spends, the dollar in our pocket is worthless.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Britt went on to vow to bring back several America First policies, especially when it comes to securing the southern border. She said President Joe Biden\u2019s failed foreign policies in countries, including Afghanistan are exacerbating the migrant crisis and are radicalizing terrorists who are illegally entering the US. Additionally, Britt said she will work to pass legislation that aims to reduce immigration and create a merit based system for foreigners to become American citizens.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><strong>\u201cYou can go all the way back to Ted Kennedy\u2019s 1965 Immigration and Naturalization Act,\u201d she voiced. You see the shift that occurred there and it wasn\u2019t for the better. We\u2019ve got to stand up for hard working Alabamians and Americans. We got to end the chain migration system and create an actual merit based immigration system. We\u2019ve got to find a way to increase wages so that people can provide for their family and have a pathway to success.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Meanwhile, several Republicans have backed Britt\u2019s bid for Senate in favor of her primary opponent and current Congressman Mo Brooks (R-Ala.). Trump unendorsed Brooks earlier this year over the Representative\u2019s lackluster stance on election integrity and lambasted him for having no loyalties but to himself.<\/p>\n<p>However, after Britt got the \u201cTrump bump\u201d she received glowing endorsements from high profile Republicans, including South Carolina Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C) and Trump\u2019s former White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders.<\/p>\n<p>Several America First candidates, including Adam Laxalt (R) in Nevada, Doug Mastriano (R) in Pennsylvania and JD Vance (R) in Ohio, won in their primaries and are headed to the November general election. Britt hopes this new band of America First patriots will coalesce to make America great again.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">TOMORROW IS THE DAY<\/p>\n<p>Remind your family, friends, colleagues, and neighbors to get out the vote on Tuesday!<\/p>\n<p>Alabama\u2019s future is on the ballot, and I\u2019d be honored to earn your vote. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/6KJBv6Zfi6\">pic.twitter.com\/6KJBv6Zfi6<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Katie Britt for AL (@KatieBrittforAL) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/KatieBrittforAL\/status\/1538859319025885186?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 20, 2022<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The runoff election between Britt and Brooks is expected to take place Tuesday.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/june-is-internet-safety-awareness-month\/\">June Is Internet Safety Awareness Month<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FILE \u2013 Republican U.S. Senate candidate Katie Britt talks to supporters during her watch party on May 24, 2022, in Montgomery, Ala.
