Washington, D.C. – Mark Kelly is a phony. Whether it be the border, gas prices, or more broadly inflation, Mark Kelly loves to feign concern and yet vote the liberal company line making our problems worse.
In an interview with the editors and reporters from the Arizona Republic, Kelly insisted that he has been pushing the Biden Administration for more action on gas prices and inflation. This, of course, is bunk.
Mark Kelly has a brutal anti-American energy voting record:
- Kelly voted three times against legislation to prohibit a ban on fracking.
- Kelly voted four times against the Keystone XL Pipeline.
- Kelly voted against a measure to increase domestic energy production.
Making matters worse, Mark Kelly has never seen a radical spending spree that he didn’t want to vote for. He voted for the Democrats’ $1.9 trillion liberal wish list disguised as COVID relief, which ended up funding things like social justice programs instead of COVID relief.
One radical spending spree just wasn’t enough for Mark Kelly. He voted for even more inflation-inducing spending in Biden’s inflation scam bill. This reckless bill includes massive middle-class tax hikes and hiring 87,000 more IRS agents to go after the middle class. The result of Kelly’s reckless spending is devastating for Arizona families. Arizona has some of the highest gas prices in the country, grocery bills are soaring, and Phoenix has the highest inflation rate of any metro area in the country.
Statement from NRSC Spokesman T.W. Arrighi: “If one thing has been increasingly clear to Arizonans this election season it’s the massive disconnect between Mark Kelly’s words and his action. Claiming to be fighting to fix a problem you created is classic Washington politician. Blake Masters will put an end to the madness and actually vote to fix problems.”
