"Liberty and freedom must be defended in the People’s House by patriots who are unafraid to challenge the status quo and stand for what is right," Cawthorn said. "I ran to change the way Congress does business. That means upholding promises made to the American people, not selling out to the Swamp. Although I have only been in Washington for a short period of time, I have learned that the fighters must stand together and defend America."
