Handel launches comeback bid with vow to fight against ‘Pelosi agenda’

WASHINGTON —

Former Congresswoman Karen Handel announced plans on Monday to seek her old suburban Atlanta U.S. House seat, setting up what will undoubtedly be a contentious primary and general election battle for a district she narrowly lost in November.

The Roswell Republican kicked off her bid for Georgia’ 6th Congressional District with a 90-second video featuring House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, presidential candidate and U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris and a trio of liberal freshman firebrands: U.S. Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar and Rashida Tlaib.

“We need someone who works for our best interests, not just for the Pelosi agenda or to gain national celebrity,” said Handel, who spent 18 months in Washington after defeating Jon Ossoff in a nationally-watched 2017 special election.
