AZ: Hold Senator Sinema Accountable

Urge Senator Sinema to Fight Back!

Alizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema

Senator Kyrsten Sinema has a problem. A big problem.

She is a Democrat. And she is a Democrat in Arizona — a state that is not particularly in sync with the Democratic Party’s anti-gun agenda.

And yet, Senator Sinema is the Democrats’ 50th vote in the Senate (51 with Kamala Harris).

The Democrats are preparing to abolish the filibuster, so that it will be Senator Sinema’s tie-breaking vote that passes the total gun confiscation, open borders, a ban on fossil fuels, D.C. statehood, court packing, ballot harvesting, reparations, and so forth.

So how does Senator Sinema remain a Democrat — without alienating her voters so much that she can’t possibly be reelected.

To begin with, Senator Sinema has loudly and publicly proclaimed that she will not vote to abolish the filibuster.

So far, so good.

But Senator Sinema realizes there is a back door here: Once a year, the Senate considers legislation to reduce the deficit — the so-called “reconciliation bill.” And the reconciliation bill CANNOT be filibustered.

So, if the Democrats stick their radical agenda onto the reconciliation bill, they can pass it with 50 votes in the Senate — without a single Republican vote.

Supposedly, the “reconciliation bill” can ONLY contain provisions that reduce the deficit.

But the Democratic Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer intends to cheat.

He is threatening the parliamentarian to allow her entire radical agenda to be added to the reconciliation bill with 50 all-Democrat votes — or the parliamentarian will be out of a job.

That is where Senator Sinema comes in. If she votes against Schumer’s fraud scheme, Schumer will be unsuccessful in passing the Far-Left’s anti-gun agenda by party line.

If Senator Sinema votes with Schumer, nothing else matter — including Sinema’s “supposed” support for the filibuster.

Chuck Schumer will have made the filibuster irrelevant.

Gun owners need to take action and defend their rights by holding Senator Sinema accountable using GOA’s prepared email action alert system.
