WATCH – Scott Perry on Unpopular and Costly Iran War: “Everybody Loves What is Happening”

Perry offers full-throated praise for unpopular war that has cost billions of dollars and raised prices across Central Pennsylvania

Central Pennsylvanians are facing higher prices on everything from gas to groceries to health care because politicians like Scott Perry have voted to spend billions on a war in Iran instead of investing in Central Pennsylvania.

What’s Perry’s message to his constituents who are struggling?

Perry: “Everybody loves what is happening, and they love that America is doing it.”

Huh? 

Polling consistently shows that Americans disapprove of the Perry-backed war in Iran and that they do not “love” what is happening. Perry has repeatedly voted in support of the war, choosing to spend billions of dollars overseas instead of investing in health care or other priorities in Central Pennsylvania.

DCCC Spokesperson Eli Cousin:
“Only a politician as extreme and out-of-touch as Scott Perry would think that Americans love paying higher prices because of a reckless war in Iran. Perry happily votes to spend billions of dollars overseas but refuses to invest in his own community.”
