As America’s economy continues to reap the benefits of the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act one year since its historic passage, Nebraskans should remember that Don Bacon voted against this game-changing legislation that invests in America, creates good-paying union construction and manufacturing jobs, and ensures U.S. competitiveness with the Chinese Communist Party.
Bacon voted against:
Bringing semiconductor manufacturing back to the U.S. and reducing production delays.
Catalyzing regional economic growth across the nation.
Creating investments in STEM education and training from K-12 to community college, undergraduate and graduate education.
Rather than vote for bipartisan legislation in service of his constituents, Bacon has spent his time in Congress appeasing party bosses. Even worse, this Congress, Bacon has voted with extremists like Marjorie Taylor Greene 86% of the time.
DCCC spokesperson Mallory Payne:
“Bacon’s vote against the bipartisan CHIPS and Science Act is a vote against common-sense legislation that is lowering costs and creating better-paying jobs. His actions to push an extreme agenda over voting for kitchen table issues will cost them next November.”
