Let Me Speak!' House Republican Battles Dem Strategist Who Accused Him Of Being in the Tank for Trump
"I think this is the whole problem is, you're making life harder for people in your district, right? Like, costs are going up and you say Congress should be in check, but you're not you haven't checked the president's power, Katz said. She continued, You haven't let him, like moderate at all. He's unchecked. And the only Republicans who ever go at him are people who are either retiring or who have lifetime appointments, Katz said."
"Respectfully, I've pushed back on numerous things. Part of the reason that I was able to deliver SALT (State and Local Tax). You talk about affordability. New York state is going to see an average of $4,000 tax cut because I fought back against my own party. I have pushed back against the president on the ACA Excuse me, I let you speak Let me speak, Lawler said as Katz tried to interrupt."
Rebecca Katz accused Representative Mike Lawler of siding with former President Trump and making life harder for constituents by supporting tariffs and failing to check presidential power. Katz said Republicans rarely confront Trump, leaving him unchecked and worsening affordability for everyday Americans. Lawler countered that he has pushed back on many issues, secured an average $4,000 SALT tax cut for New York by opposing his own party, and challenged the administration on the ACA. Lawler argued Congress must address tariff authority after a Supreme Court ruling and said he voted against ending the fentanyl national emergency.
