Brown blasts welfare vote group chaired by Warren’s daughter

A left-leaning research group that’s leading a national campaign to get welfare recipients to the voting booths is chaired by Democratic Senate contender Elizabeth Warren’s daughter — and is drawing immediate fire from incumbent GOP Sen. Scott Brown.

“I want every legal vote to count, but it’s outrageous to use taxpayer dollars to register welfare recipients as part of a special effort to boost one political party over another,” Brown said in a statement this morning. “This effort to sign up welfare recipients is being aided by Elizabeth Warren’s daughter and it’s clearly designed to benefit her mother’s political campaign. It means that I’m going to have to work that much harder to get out my pro-jobs, pro-free enterprise message.”

Demos, whose board is chaired by Amelia Warren Tyagi, successfully filed suit in May to force the Bay State to send out nearly 500,000 voter registration cards to welfare recipients. Their lawsuit, filed in conjunction with the ACORN offshoot New England United for Justice, comes as Warren faces a tight battle with Brown in a nationally watched battle that could decide which party controls the Senate.

Dear welfare recipients of Massachusetts: Lizzie Warren, who is as white as talcum powder, claimed to be an Indian to take benefits intended for real Indians. Will she take benefits intended for you?
