NEW: Elon Musk Pours Money Behind Juan Ciscomani After He Backed DOGE Cuts That Devastated Arizona

Ciscomani said he was “thrilled” with Elon’s DOGE cuts that hurt AZ veterans. Now Musk is putting money behind him.

New financial disclosures reveal that Elon Musk is pouring money behind vulnerable Rep. Juan Ciscomani’s campaign.

Musk’s financial backing of Ciscomani comes after he voted to gut Arizonans’ health care in order to give massive tax breaks to billionaires and the ultra-wealthy like Musk, and after he championed Musk’s DOGE cuts that hurt veterans.

Ciscomani said he was “thrilled” to work with DOGE, which gutted veterans’ healthcare and cut hundreds of positions at VA hospitals across Arizona. Now, because of Ciscomani, nearly 80,000 veterans living in the district face longer wait times and may even need to travel out of state to get the health care they have earned.

DCCC Spokesperson Lindsay Reilly:
“Juan Ciscomani voted to give billionaires like Elon Musk a tax break and championed DOGE cuts that hurt Arizona veterans. Now, Musk is pouring money behind Ciscomani’s flailing campaign to thank him for putting donors first and Arizonans last. No amount of money can rescue Ciscomani from his own record of higher costs and health care cuts.”
