Brad Pfaff calls attack on U.S. Capitol January 6th "beyond shameful"

Published | Video Starts at 00:24

He appeared today with Wisconsin U.S. senator Tammy Baldwin to say that if you believe the behavior of the people who rushed the Capitol on January 6 is acceptable, he is not your candidate. But If the people here in western and central Wisconsin are looking for a candidate for Congress that shares their values, that understands their way of life, that has spent his entire adult life working for the people of this area and for the communities of this area, someone who will bring Western Wisconsin values, and we need more Western Wisconsin values in the US House of Representatives. If they are looking for that kind of candidate, I'm it. Paf says he understands democracy is a fragile thing, but important. And the give and take required in that process means people don't always receive what they want. (00:24–00:51)
