Kaptur’s reckless spending spree sent stimulus checks to death row inmates

September 1, 2022

The Washington Free Beacon reports inmates, including those serving life sentences, received more than $1 billion in stimulus checks.  

Republican lawmakers warned Democrats this would happen as the American Rescue Plan was debated, but Democrats like Marcy Kaptur voted for it anyway.

NRCC Comment: “Marcy Kaptur ignored warnings from her colleagues and voted to send convicted murderers and rapists stimulus checks. Ohio voters can’t trust Kaptur to safeguard their hard-earned dollars.”  – NRCC Spokeswoman Courtney Parella
