NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Former Florida Governor, and G.O.P Presidential candidate Jeb Bush was in Nashville Tuesday. He spoke at the Send North America Conference at Bridgestone Arena.
Democrats are slamming Bush for a remark he made at the event.
When asked about federal funding for Planned Parenthood at a meeting of the Southern Baptist Convention Bush said, in part, that he wasn’t sure the U.S. needed half a billion dollars for women’s health issues.
But after catching flack from his colleagues from across the aisle, Bush said he “misspoke.”
The Florida Governor added:
“There are countless community health centers, rural clinics and other women’s health organizations that need to be fully funded.”
Tuesday’s event also included a video interview with Presidential candidate Marco Rubio.
Here is the report by The Tennessean.
The poster child for the Donald Trump campaign. Against the Establishment? The GOP gives you …the third Bush.
