Hoosiers know the kind of disaster that ensues whenever Mike Pence gets near a public health crisis. Just a few years ago, he enabled the worst HIV outbreak in Indiana’s history. And he’s spent his political career discrediting basic science with statements like “smoking doesn’t kill.â€
We literally couldn’t think of a worse person to tackle the coronavirus, but that didn’t stop Donald Trump from appointing him to the position.
The same virtual charter schools that stole millions of dollars from Hoosier taxpayers made over $100,000 in campaign contributions to the GOP.
Yep. Gov. Holcomb, House Speaker Brian Bosma, and a swarm of other Republican lawmakers raked in a whole lot of campaign cash.
The GOP’s fingerprints are all over this scandal, and yet they think they can get away with it. Republican Senator Travis Holdman was paid a monthly retainer by one of the schools for legal and business consulting for eight years. Bosma, who received $10,000 in campaign donations, deemed the schools’ conduct ‘criminal,’ without even batting an eye at his hypocrisy.
The GOP thinks they can pump money into unaccountable charter schools, then act surprised when their political campaigns are flush with what appears to be crooked cash. They can’t. But it’s our job to hold them accountable.
VOTE THEM OUT!
