Rep. Olszewski Blasts Senate's 'Self-Serving' CR Addition as 'Corruption at a Whole New Level'

Criticism of the Funding Deal

• 🎯 The current funding deal is criticized for failing to address crushing healthcare costs and imposing a massive tax hike on working families.
• ⚠️ It also fails to prevent the President from canceling funding, a pattern that has occurred repeatedly.

Senate's 'Self-Serving' Provision

• 💰 A specific provision in the Continuing Resolution (CR) allows Senators to write themselves million-dollar checks as compensation for legally subpoenaed phone records.
• 💸 These checks are to be paid for by American taxpayers, which the speaker labels as corruption.
• ⚖️ The act of Congress writing a law to protect and fund corruption is described as brazen, disgusting, and an effort to legalize corruption.

Call to Action

• 🚫 Voting for the CR makes one complicit in the corruption.
• ✊ The speaker urges rejection of this self-serving scam to ensure government serves the people, not the powerful.
