Fiorina Calls Boxer Hypocrite On Outsourcing Issue
HUNTINGTON BEACH (AP) — GOP Senate candidate Carly Fiorina is calling Democratic Sen. Barbara Boxer a hypocrite for attacking Fiorina over her record of outsourcing jobs while chief executive of Hewlett-Packard.
Fiorina also challenged Boxer to return campaign contributions she has received from companies that outsourced jobs.
Boxer has pulled ahead in their race after running ads attacking Fiorina for outsourcing jobs while she was in charge of HP.
Fiorina held a town hall with Orange County business leaders Wednesday to respond to the allegations.
She said Boxer's policies have stifled business and forced her and other executives to outsource to survive.
Boxer said Wednesday she is "focused like a laser beam" on jobs and supports a bill to help small businesses by improving access to credit.
