GOP Women's Group Blasts Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert as 'Carnival Barkers'

"While we rightfully celebrate the number of GOP women serving in the House, I've always professed quality over quantity," said VIEW PAC executive director Julie Conway

One powerful, conservative political fundraiser has avoided lending its support to Republicans Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert since the women first took office earlier this year.

The Value In Electing Women Political Action Committee has a lengthy history of backing Republican women. Greene, 47, and Boebert, 34, are not among them.

Julie Conway, executive director of VIEW PAC, called the move "intentional" on Wednesday in an email to Business Insider, dubbing the duo "carnival barkers" and "shameless self-promoters."
........................................................
"The work of Congress is not a joke or reality show," she told Business Insider. "Our women have fought too hard for too long to be respected and taken seriously as legislators, policymakers and thought leaders. We cannot let this work be erased by individuals who chose to be shameless self-promoters and carnival barkers."

In response to the criticism, Boebert replied with, "Julie who? Never heard of her," in an email to Business Insider.........................................
