GOP Rep “Can’t Recall” Voting Against Infrastructure Bill After Presenting Giant Check For Small Business Project

The Insider reports:

On Sunday, Republican Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar of Florida was asked about federal funding she’s been bragging about bringing to her Miami-area district. It didn’t go so well.

In an interview with CBS Miami on Sunday, host Jim DeFede asked Salazar about her votes against three bills: an omnibus bill to fund the government for 2023, the CHIPS and Science Act, and the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law.

Salazar posed with a giant $650,000 check for a small business program development program that was funded by the 2023 omnibus. But in the interview, Salazar indicated several times that she did not recall how she voted on all three of those bills.

Watch the clip. Excellent work by the host.

Salazar last appeared here in November 2023 when she praised “homogeneous” Argentina for having “one race, one culture, one religion.”

Salazar also appeared here in 2021 when she condemned Biden for “handing over” the international rights to COVID vaccines, thereby “undermining” US-based big pharma of their profits.

Salazar missed her 2020 swearing-in as a freshman because she was ill with COVID.
