DCCC Launches “GOPVotedToDefault.Com,” Highlighting Painful Impacts of Brian Fitzpatrick’s Extreme ‘Default on America Act’

Pennsylvanians will see what critical programs that Fitzpatrick voted to cut

On Thursday, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee launched www.GOPVotedToDefault.com, a new microsite highlighting the extreme and painful spending cuts Brian Fitzpatrick voted for as part of their ‘Default on America Act.’

Fitzpatrick sided with extremists to hold our economy hostage and enact cruel cuts to programs that keep Americans safe, secure, and healthy. On top of the dangerous cuts, the ‘Default on America Act’ would trigger a job-killing recession, gut Americans’ hard-earned retirement savings, and increase unemployment.

The new microsite allows Pennsylvanians to explore how Fitzpatrick’s vote would negatively affect their family and community.

Over the next 17 months, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee will continue to hold Brian Fitzpatrick accountable to ensure Pennsylvanians know Fitzpatrick’s false promises at home do not match his actions on Capitol Hill.

DCCC spokesperson Viet Shelton:
“When Brian Fitzpatrick sided with the extremes of his party and voted for the ‘Default on America Act,’ he sold out hard-working families in Pennsylvania and pushed our economy closer to a job-killing recession. Pennsylvanians will hold Fitzpatrick accountable for these disastrous cuts to programs veterans and seniors depend on, and the shameless mistruths he has been telling his constituents.”
