U.S. House Candidate Pam Gulleson issued the following statement in response to recent comments from Valley News Live talk show host Chris Berg, who compared Gulleson's position on Social Security to Adolph Hitler's "Big Lie" Theory:

"It's unfortunate to see such inappropriate rhetoric surrounding this debate, but I remain just as committed as ever to fighting to preserve Social Security and Medicare. I will not be silenced on this issue that matters to so many North Dakota seniors and their families. Our greatest generation fought Hitler and his ilk, so I won't stop fighting for the programs that make sure that our greatest generation can retire with dignity."
