Mia Love supports Steve Scalise despite David Duke controversy

Sunday morning, Representative-elect Mia Love (R-UT) told ABC News she supports incoming GOP Majority Whip Steve Scalise (R-LA), even after it was reported he spoke at an event in 2002 that was affiliated with Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke.

The GOP’s first black female lawmaker told ABC News
