Re: [D] Party Con
Today, Rep Jordan (R) called D's out for creating legislation that if enacted would basically turn government funds into slush their own re-election campaigns.
Ranking Member Jordan Opening Statement: "HR 1: Strengthening Ethics Rules for the Executive Branch"
NOTABLE
"This Congress, the Democrats' H.R. 1 is the so-called "For the People Act." A more accurate title would be "For the People Who Want Democrats to Win Elections from Now On." Rep. Jim Jordan
"The bill includes a laundry list of tired proposals designed to benefit the majority by tilting the playing field in their favor. It’s not a stretch to label many of these proposals 'radical." Rep. Jim Jordan
"There is much that can be done to improve the functioning, transparency, and effectiveness of the federal government. However, this 571 page bill reads more like a wish list for the democratic party than an honest attempt at reform." Rep. Jim Jordan
"I fear that this legislation is a sign our friends in the majority want to play games, engage in political theatre to start this Congress rather than use this time to work constructively to find solutions for the hardworking Americans that sent us here." ~ Rep. Jim Jordan
