Larsen Fights Against Trump’s Corrupt Slush Fund

Today, U.S. Representative Rick Larsen (WA-02) released the following statement: “While families struggle to put food on their tables and gas in their cars, the President wants to hand out taxpayer dollars to domestic terrorists who attacked police officers on January 6th and other criminals. This out-in-the-open corruption is shameful. Taxpayer dollars should be spent making life more affordable and creating local jobs.” This week, President Trump announced a $1.8 billion fund to be distributed to the President’s political allies. Rep. Larsen is cosponsoring Representative Jamie Raskin’s (MD-08) bill to block President Trump’s abuse of settlement funds to steal $1.8 billion from the U.S. Treasury (the No Taxpayer-Funded Settlement Slush Funds Act).
