Rep. Giffords voting record is a Threat to the Economy

 Rep. Giffords voting record is a Threat to the Economy.

TUCSON, AZ.   Representative Gabrielle Giffords' latest votes are a threat to the American economy. Last Friday, Rep. Giffords voted for HR 4173¹, a bill that would give the government massive new powers over private companies that "threaten" the financial stability of the United States. Just one day prior, Rep. Giffords supported HR 3288², a 1,088-page, bloated spending bill. The $1.1 trillion monstrosity is stuffed with thousands of pork-laden payoffs for special interests back home.

 This reckless deficit spending by Giffords and the Obama liberals in Washington is the real threat to our economy. The irresponsible new debt will cause the dollar to weaken, inflation to rise, and the cost of everyday goods to increase.

Jesse Kelly supports responsible spending. The government should focus on its Constitutional mission of providing for the national defense and promoting individual liberty through enumerated powers. The notion of "bringing home the bacon" is simply bankrupting us all, while perpetuating the myth that someone else is paying. The truth is we are paying, in the form of higher taxes and greater debt. This pattern of deficit spending is unconstitutional, unsustainable, and must stop.

Jesse Kelly is a candidate for Arizona's Eighth Congressional District in the southeastern region of the state. For more information on the Jesse Kelly campaign please visit VoteJesseKelly.com.
