Martha McSally on Budget & Economy

COVID: opposes federal aid to states and cities

Martha McSally: No. "This is not the time for states and cities who have mismanaged their budgets over the course of many decades to see you, as a taxpayer in Arizona, as a cash cow."

Mark Kelly: Yes. "Congress cannot let Arizona cities and towns go bankrupt in their fight against COVID-19--that would only hurt Arizonans and our economy."

Don't hand to the future $17 trillion in debt

Instead, our current bloated, inefficient government stifles small business growth and chokes off opportunity for the middle class. Plain and simple, this is a failure of leadership, and we need new leaders in Washington, D.C., willing to put the concerns of hardworking Americans ahead of their next reelection.

It's time we go line-by-line through the federal budget, eliminating waste and duplication wherever it exists.

Supports a Balanced Budget Amendment.

CC.org's self-description: "The Christian Coalition voter guide [is] one of the most powerful tools Christians have ever had to impact our society during elections. This simple tool has helped educate tens of millions of citizens across this nation as to where candidates for public office stand on key faith and family issues.

The Coalition is a political organization, made up of pro-family Americans who care deeply about ensuring that government serves to strengthen and preserve, rather than threaten, our families and our values. To that end, we work continuously to identify, educate and mobilize Christians for effective political action."
