Vindman Called Out for Lying About Securing District Funds
In case you missed it, out of touch Democrat Eugene Vindman was brutally called out by the Culpeper Star-Exponent for lying about securing critical funding for his district.
Vindman’s been bragging about securing $850,000 for a road extension project and $850,000 for improved safety at an elementary school in his district.
The problem? Vindman voted against that funding.
“Out of touch Eugene Vindman voted to deny 55,000 Virginia federal workers a paycheck, then he voted to deny his district critical federal funding. Vindman will always cave to his radical base at the expense of hardworking Virginians.” – NRCC Spokesman Reilly Richardson

Rep. Eugene Vindman, D-7th, spent a lot of time in the area recently handing out big checks for community projects for which he successfully lobbied — although he voted against federal appropriations for the projects.
[…]
The National Republican Congressional Committee is calling Vindman out, saying he touted $850,000 each for school projects in Culpeper and Gordonsville.

Richardson, with NRCC, took Vindman to task again for voting against something he worked for — apparently a common occurrence in Washington for politics.
“Democrat Eugene Vindman just made it crystal clear: he cares more about partisan politics than farmers, ranchers, and rural communities,” the Republican spokesperson said.
“Early this morning, the House Agriculture Committee passed a bipartisan Farm Bill that strengthens risk management, expands access to credit, lowers costs, and prioritizes American farmers. But Vindman voted no. At a time when producers are dealing with high input costs and burdensome regulations, Virginia farmers deserve certainty, not political games.
Richardson continued, “By voting against the Farm Bill, out-of-touch Democrat Eugene Vindman sided with Washington politicians over the hardworking farmers and producers who feed and fuel this country. Virginians deserve leaders who fight for producers, not partisan grandstanding.”
