Jacky Rosen is out with a new television ad talking about how she “won’t walk the party line.” But in Congress, she has done the exact opposite, voting with Nancy Pelosi nearly 90 percent of the time.
Rosen has sided with her Democratic Party leaders on every major vote, opposing tax cuts for the middle class, repeatedly voting to shut down the government despite pledging not to and refusing to crack down on dangerous sanctuary cities.
“This ad is emblematic of the complete disregard Jacky Rosen has for Nevadans’ intelligence,” said NRSC Spokesman Michael McAdams. “During her brief time in office, Rosen has been nothing but a rubber stamp for Nancy Pelosi and liberal Democrats, and for her to claim otherwise is completely dishonest.”
