GOP U.S. Senate nominee Katie Britt will hold a star-studded campaign rally Monday in Madison alongside several high-ranking Republican officeholders.

The rally will feature firebrand U.S. Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), Lt. Gov. Will Ainsworth, House Speaker Mac McCutcheon (R-Monrovia), Senate Majority Leader Clay Scofield (R-Guntersville) and House Majority Leader Nathaniel Ledbetter (R-Rainsville).

The “Get Out The Vote” event at Black Patch Distillery in Madison, is scheduled to start at 11 a.m..

In a statement announcing the rally, Britt expressed her honor in joining Blackburn and Republican state leaders for the Madison County event.

“I’m excited to join an incredible lineup of speakers in Madison County at our ‘Get Out The Vote’ rally,” said Britt. “It’s an honor to have Senator Marsha Blackburn on hand to outline how important this upcoming General Election is. We are looking forward to visiting with everyone and discussing what’s at stake on November 8.”

“It’s time to send a message loud and clear to Washington, D.C., that we’ve had enough of President Biden’s radical agenda that puts hardworking Alabama families last, whether it is generationally high inflation, a historic border crisis, or the devastating flood of fentanyl into our communities,” she said. “This is the ‘Year of the Parent’, and people across our great state know that our future is on the ballot.

“Together, we will preserve the American Dream for our children and our children’s children.”

Britt will face Democrat Will Boyd in the Nov. 8 general election for the seat held by retiring U.S. Sen. Richard Shelby (R-Tuscaloosa).
