Five Questions for David Schweikert and Juan Ciscomani on McCarthy’s Extreme MAGA Agenda

Just weeks after House Democrats prevented a GOP-manufactured default, Speaker Kevin McCarthy is putting highly vulnerable Reps. David Schweikert and Juan Ciscomani at risk just to placate his far-right base as they threaten his weakening grip on the Speaker’s gavel.

Arizonans deserve to know if Schweikert and Ciscomani will stand up for their constituents or continue to stand with McCarthy and his extreme agenda.

  • Will Schweikert and Ciscomani support efforts to fast track the GOP Tax Scam 2.0 to give tax giveaways to the wealthy and well-connected, and protect tax cheats?

  • Will Schweikert and Ciscomani vote for ongoing Republican efforts to enact a nationwide abortion ban?

  • Do Schweikert and Ciscomani support the political stunts targeting FBI Director Christopher Wray?

  • Do Schweikert and Ciscomani support right-wing efforts to impeach the Homeland Security Secretary?

  • Do Schweikert and Ciscomani want to impeach President Biden for overseeing the creation of 13 million jobs in 28 months?

Recent polling suggests vulnerable House Republicans – including Schweikert and Ciscomani – are prioritizing the wrong issues. 

DCCC spokesperson Viet Shelton
“Vulnerable House Republicans like David Schweikert and Juan Ciscomani are seemingly ok with bailing out Kevin McCarthy and advancing the Freedom Caucus’ extreme agenda at the direct expense of Arizonans. Schweikert and Ciscomani’s continued deference to McCarthy’s radical and dangerous priorities is only helping Democrats build the case against them in 2024.”
