Fake Deficit Hawk David Schweikert “Facing Blowback” for Spending Trillions on Tax Cuts for Billionaires

Schweikert has repeatedly voted for multi-trillion-dollar bills that balloon the deficit and national debt

Major new reporting from NBC News is exposing how hypocrite David Schweikert is “facing blowback” for his recent vote to spend TRILLIONS on tax cuts for billionaires.

Schweikert, who “has given countless floor speeches and interviews on the risk of deficits and the national debt,” is struggling to explain his blatant hypocrisy and harmful voting record.

The vulnerable Republican told NBC News that the roughly $4 trillion price tag of the Big, Ugly Bill – which Schweikert previously admitted he helped write – “absolutely” gave him “heartburn.” Just not enough to vote no, apparently!

DCCC Spokesperson Lindsay Reilly:
“David Schweikert is scrambling to explain his own hypocrisy, but voters know the truth: Schweikert will sell hardworking Arizonans out if that means giving billionaires a tax break. What a complete and total fraud.”
