Courage For America, a liberal group that eyes the House, is hammering the four Republicans in ads and events, warning about cuts to the funding of veterans in the GOP debt ceiling plan.Republicans have rejected claims from Democrats that their debt limit plan, the Limit, Save, Grow Act, which cleared the House last month, will slash funding for veterans. The proposal laid out caps for spending, but didn't outright cut veterans' funding.
The White House has taken the proposed caps and estimated that it would amount to a 22% cut for veterans.Courage For America and aligned groups are planning to host an event with veterans taking aim at Rep. Brandon Williams , a newly elected congressman from New York, Axios reported.Williams represents New York's 22nd Congressional District and won his seat against the backdrop of a messy redistricting process in which Democrats lost favorable apportionment due to court setbacks.
“Veterans like Nancy, who have sacrificed immensely to serve their country, deserve better than Rep. Kiggans’ plan to protect taxpayer giveaways to billionaires and corporations while cutting funding for service members," Shah added.
