These are the priorities of the House GOP.
John,
On Wednesday, Summer participated in her first hearing as a member of the Committee on Oversight and Accountability — and it was predictably Republican.
At a time when corporations are picking the pockets of working families, Republicans spent their first Oversight hearing of the 118th Congress attacking COVID relief programs like expanded unemployment insurance benefits and support for small businesses.
It’s as if corporations themselves are running Congress with GOP priorities like these:
Simply put, instead of protecting taxpayers from the interests of billionaires, Republicans are catering to the far right and distorting reality. Here are the facts: Elon Musk is a union-buster, civil rights must be a priority of the House, and white supremacist super-villains like Marjorie Taylor Greene, Lauren Boebert, and Paul Gosar have no place in Congress.
But this is the GOP playbook. Distract voters with right-wing propaganda while they make backroom deals with their wealthy donors to cut Social Security and Medicare.
Now more than ever, we need working-class champions like Summer who will take on right-wing extremists to deliver on the needs of working families. With our support, Summer will continue to be a voice of the people on the Oversight Committee and cut through the GOP noise.
If you're with Summer in this fight, will you please chip in $5 or anything you can now to support the work ahead?
