Schweikert’s vote takes away health care coverage and food assistance from working parents, kids, seniors, and people with disabilities in Arizona
David Schweikert and House Republicans just passed a far-right budget resolution that will rip away health care coverage and affordable food for millions of American families, all so they can fund massive tax breaks for their billionaire backers and wealthy corporations.
In AZ-01 alone, this dangerous vote risks health care coverage for 78,000 people and food assistance for nearly 19,000 households.
Despite the loud outcry of Americans across the country warning House Republicans like Schweikert to vote against decimating Medicaid and threatening their livelihoods, Schweikert still voted to pass this destructive budget scam, once again choosing his D.C. party bosses and billionaires over Arizonans.
The DCCC will hold Schweikert accountable for his support of this dangerous agenda to rip away health care and food access from Arizona families.
DCCC Spokesperson Nebeyatt Betre:
“David Schweikert just sealed his political fate by inflicting this massive pain on Arizona families, and no amount of his desperate lies will save him from the political fallout of this vote.”
