Madison Cawthorn's latest hypocrisy

 


 
 

 
North Carolina Rep. Madison Cawthorn took to Twitter to give his constituents some good news:
 
Alt text: Tweet from Rep. Madison Cawthorn reads: "Happy to announce that NC-11 was awarded grants from the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services.  -Appalachian Mountain Community Health Centers was given $2,458,000  -Western North Carolina Community Health Services Inc. was given $4,622,375"

To clarify: Madison Cawthorn voted AGAINST the American Rescue Plan that awarded these grants. Every Republican in the House and Senate did.
 
Democrats used a razor-thin Senate majority to pass a lifesaving relief package in Congress -- and your vote and activism made it possible.
 
But Cawthorn wants to take the credit in the eyes of voters. Republicans are twisting the narrative to score political points, and if their strategy works, they'll soon take back the House by capitalizing on the Democratic agenda.
 
We need to make sure the American people know the truth about Cawthorn's hypocrisy. Right now, we're working to flip Cawthorn's seat and get one more lying right-wing extremist out of Congress.
 
Right before the Capitol insurrection, Cawthorn told his supporters to “lightly threaten” lawmakers if they upheld the election results. If we unseat him, we'll be one step closer to securing our Democratic majority throughout Biden's presidency -- and we'll know we did everything we could to end Trump's damaging influence in our government.
 
If we don't, Cawthorn will continue using his inflammatory rhetoric to threaten our democratic institutions -- all while growing the right-wing's power in our legislature.
 
We need your help to get this extremist out of Washington for good -- we have everything it takes except the funds we need to unseat a GOP favorite like Cawthorn.
 
Right-wing Republicans think they can vote against lifesaving legislation and then take credit for helping the American people when they need it most. Please, pitch in $10, $25, or anything you can right now to show Cawthorn and the GOP that the American people will hold them accountable.
The only thing standing in the way of a complete Republican takeover is people like you who refuse to let our country fall into the hands of right-wing extremists like Cawthorn.
 
Thank you for stepping up to get one more Trump favorite out of Congress.
