Rep. Adam Kinzinger

WHY KINZINGER?

Kinzinger zinged Congress at a 2010 Homer/Lockport Tea Party Rally as a candidate, saying “We should have been talking about our belief in the private sector. We should have been talking about what it takes to allow entrepreneurs and small business owners to create jobs. We should have been talking about tightening our belts…” But as a member of Congress, Kinzinger voted against cutting $15 million the Preisidio Trust Fund, leaving him as one of just 10 Republicans in favor of a subsidy for a national park in San Francisco that is a pet project of former Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s.

CHECK THE RECORD:

• Voted for a budget extension that funded ObamaCare (RCV #579, 2012)

• Voted to increase the debt ceiling by $2.1 trillion. (RCV #690, 2011)

• Voted against cutting $15 million in funding for the Presidio Trust Fund in Nancy Pelosi’s district (RCV #70, 2011)

• Voted for the “fiscal cliff” deal that raised tax rates and delayed automatic spending cuts (RCV #659, 2012)

• Voted with labor unions to protect spending for the National Labor Relations Board (RCV #75, 2011)

• Voted for Davis-Bacon wages on government projects, which are nothing but giveaways to Big Labor. (RCV #144, 2011)

• Voted against the budget proposed by House conservatives (RCV #275, 2011)

• Voted against numerous spending cuts that would have reduced the size of government (Link)
