Senator Gallego to Vote Against Republican Spending Cuts and Elon Musk’s Government Takeover

WASHINGTON –Today,Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ)released the following statement on the Republicans’ spending plan:
“Let’s not kid ourselves, this is a bad resolution that gives Elon Musk and his cronies permission to continue cutting veterans’ benefits, slashes resources for Arizona’s water needs, and abandons our wildland firefighters. I can’t stand by that, and that’s why I’m voting no. We must come together to pass a bipartisan solution—I’m committed to putting in the work to do that—but this resolution is a grab bag of extreme policies that harms Arizona families.”
