Statement summary
Cynthia Lummis defends the ads as patriotic messaging, compares them with earlier presidents' public-information campaigns and objects to Hassan's resolution against federal payment.
“Presidents of both parties have used public service announcements to speak directly to the American people for decades.”
The Congressional Record contains Schumer's criticism and the full exchange in which Hassan seeks unanimous consent and Lummis objects.
The conduct under scrutiny is federal funding for Trump-promoting ads. Lummis supplies a substantive justification and blocks the effort to reject public payment.
