Because is just adding fuel to the flame and there is no evidence of wide spread fraud!! I am personally disgusted with Republicans period!

Ed Merzlak

In my opinion, Hawley is guilty of sedition, publicly raising his fist in support of the rioters. Remember, 5 people lost their lives. Censure does not remove him from office, he retains his title, stature, and power to vote. He is an embarrasment to the people of Missouri and he must be removed.

Travis Follett

He knows there was no fraud. He's just using the situation to ingratiate himself to trump's base. He helped pour fuel on that fire.

Sheila Plummer

Absolutely! This Missouri resident is embarrassed by his non-representation of a majority of his fellow Missourians.

dglobetrotter

He is not following the constitution, and spreads lies.

Crystal Long

He helped with the riot on the capital he should resign

R Talbott

I believe he acted without consideration of common good, and acted in what he thought might increase his position for future political opportunities. Might have back fired. He should be censured by Congress.

Audrey Shewmaker

He did encourage rioters. And he should be disciplined.

Jennifer Tiff

He knows there was no voter fraud. He knows Trump was lying and he backed it. He tried to take away our democracy and replace it with a dictatorship. I think Gobbels was a great comparison to Hawleys behavior in this attempted government coupe.

Nina Ogle

The courts decided there was no election fraud and he knows this. He is not upholding his oath to support the Constitution.

Cecil Schick

He is now a trumplican and not a true Republican. He says he was speaking for the millions I think that's just what the election and all the recounts did. Your just a trumppet a puppet for the slime ball trump!

Dennis Gravedoni Sr.

And because he used the riots for a fund raising event, even while the capital was under siege.

It is absolutely his right to question the results an election with so many obvious irregularities - just doing the job he was elected to do!!!

Eric Endsley

He is representing Missouri majority of people.

Vernon Taylor

So the same ones who complain about overturning an election - now want to - because he's got the haters scared.

Mary Jane Thomson Jackson

Sen. Hawley was doing his job, as we all know there was fraud in this election.

Derek Burks

Its no different than when democrats did the same thing in 3 elections since 2000. If they see tom foolery. They are obligated by law to report it.

stacy Hospital

He is a great guy and is for the people! He believes that there was a problem with voter fraud as 80 million Americans do !! People should leave him alone !!!

David Apel

What he did was totally constitutional and Pelosi did it in 2009,

Johnie Brauer

He is doing his job by representing his constituents. I totally agree with him and very proud of him!! We need more like him!!

Bill Whisenand

Because he was within his legal right to do it.

Will Mason

Asking to look at the election did not incite violence. 4 yeats of leftist lies did.

This is a good start and the best that could be passed. Don't let perfect be the enemy of great.

Dennis Willems

Everyone should support the bill.

Eric Smith

They should support the president and the constituents who voted them in. That includes us who believe you work for what you get. No handouts!

Toasty

The cuts didn't go deep enough. Ex. Musk's criticisms about how the EV mandates would be cut (good thing), but no cuts to the auto industry subsidies (bad thing). The liberal/socialist media is already lying to folks how this bill is throwing grandma under the bus. Proof? Look at the 'No' comments.

Jeffery Schuyler

It is a wealth transfer Bill: From the poorest Americans to the richest.

Anita Grace Ward

Please don’t do that! Trump promised no cuts to Medicaid but her we are just 5months into his term and he is doing that!

Laura Cochran

Help for the rich to get richer and it puts more average people in worse situations. Don't cut Medicaid or Social Security

David Keller

They are going to take Medicaid away from 16 million people and who knows what else. Josh Hawley has got to go if he votes yes.

T Boy

I do not like the tax cuts which would cause the reduction of Medicaid

John Harbaugh

Tax reductions for the super rich ... doesn't make sense when it cuts necessary programs and helps inflate our Country's debt

Porter Bingham

The only way they can make this look like it doesn’t completely destroy the deficit is by making certain tax cuts and spending increases “temporary.” I support the tax cuts, as long as they are met with subsequent spending cuts. The true burden of government is what it spends, not what it taxes.

Keith

We will vote every last Republican out of office. Stealing food and Healthcare from [anyone] to profit the rich is an act of war and shall be treated as such.

Max DeYoung

Fox News Poll: 6 in 10 are proud of US today – the most in more than a decade 7 in 10 voters think the United States is the best place to live The liberals are in PANIC mode LOL

Lorrie Tucker

It would increase the national debt by about 3 trillion dollars, and take away necessary infrastructure, all while lowering taxes on the wealthy.

Tracy Trapp

As a customer of the Affordable Care Act I find it appalling that the two senators from Missouri would even consider supporting this bill that will potentially triple my monthly premium and also cut benefits. They should be ashamed of themselves for bowing down to the President. Checks and balances

Stephanie Leavendusky

It will hurt many people in Missouri.

Brad Chance

He said he would support the people who elected him. It's simple

Chris Ketcherside

You are kidding, right? Missouri congressmen need to read their job descriptions and represent their constituents. Voting for this bill is a betrayal of the will of the people.

Paula Garrett

Millionaires and billionaires don't need a tax break as much some people need health care. Also, social security's fund needs fixed which would have been a better use for that $45 million he wasted on a parade. Trump has all his priorities wrong.

James Itczak

This is a rash and extreme bill and someone needs to speak up and slow this down, people are going to suffer for this,

Gary Carter

They were elected to represent their constituents, ALL CONSTITUENTS not just those whom they perceived voted for them. Don't let anyone hold their vote hostage.
