Sanders Campaign Statement on New York Debate
April 2, 2016
EAU CLAIRE, Wis. – Bernie Sanders’ spokesman Michael Briggs issued the following statement Saturday on a debate in New York with Hillary Clinton:
“We are very pleased that Secretary Clinton finally has accepted our
request for a debate about the needs of New York and America.
Unfortunately, the dates and venues she has proposed don’t make a whole
lot of sense. The idea that they want a debate in New York on a night of
the NCAA finals – with Syracuse in the tournament no less – is
ludicrous. We have proposed other dates which they have rejected. We
hope we can reach agreement in the near future. The people of New York
and America deserve to see and hear a debate on the important issues
facing the state and country.”
