Democratic Arrogance on Display: Harris’s Fundraiser Causes Major Traffic Disruptions on Cape Cod

July 22, 2024

 

Boston, MA–  Over the weekend, Massachusetts Democrats celebrated their Saturday fundraiser with Vice President Kamala Harris. However, Democrat leaders throughout the Commonwealth strategically omitted the fact that their $2 million fundraiser significantly impacted Cape Cod on a peak July Saturday, a crucial day for travel and small businesses during their short season.

 

MassGOP Chair Amy Carnevale commented on the fundraiser, noting its impact on halting Cape Cod traffic, stating, “For an hour and a half, due to the Vice President’s motorcade, Cape Cod was at a standstill while Democratic elites raked in money. Meanwhile, small business owners on the Cape were left idle, waiting for the Harris fundraiser to conclude so they could get back to business. Residents experienced standstill traffic on one of their busiest days of the season.”

 

“This could have all been avoided if the Vice President had helicoptered to Provincetown after being flown into Joint Base Cape Cod. Instead, Vice President Harris and her cohort of Democratic leaders, including Governor Healey and Senator Warren, once again showed a blatant disregard for Massachusetts residents. Their actions demonstrated arrogance and a clear preference for the political elite, as they chose to drive down and shut down Route 6, prioritizing their own interests over serving their constituents,” Carnevale concluded.
