Bresnahan fails to stand up against corruption, special interests

Posted

Anti-corruption group End Citizens United Action Fund announced that Rep. Rob Bresnahan earned an F on its scorecard for the 119th Congress. The scorecard grades members of Congress based on their votes and co-sponsorship of key legislation and procedural actions that would crack down on corruption in Washington, advance campaign finance reform, and protect and expand voting rights.

“Rep. Bresnahan’s record shows a consistent willingness to side with billionaire donors and corporate special interests, even when it means real harm to working families,” said Tiffany Muller, End Citizens United Action Fund president. “He voted to strip health care from millions of working Americans in order to fund tax breaks for the wealthy, cut food assistance, and rubber-stamped gutting critical consumer protections. At the same time, he has abused his office and become one of the most prolific stock traders in Congress, raising serious ethical concerns about insider trading. Taken together, this record is not accidental. It reflects a governing agenda shaped by donor interests, corporate lobbyists, and personal financial gain. That pattern of putting himself and special interests first is why Rep. Bresnahan earned an F.”

The scorecard is based on several criteria, including cosponsoring the proposed constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United, voting to prevent the SAVE Act from advancing as a restrictive voting measure, and rejecting corporate PAC money. Other criteria focused on protecting American families from historic attempts to weaken consumer and environmental protections, as well as opposing the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which amounted to one of the most egregious transfers of wealth from the working class in order to reward GOP megadonors for their support.
