Biden Admin Uses Taxpayer-Funded Email Blast To Praise Kamala Ahead Of Election
SUMMARY
The Biden-Harris administration is under fire for sending a taxpayer-funded email blast promoting Vice President Kamala Harris to millions of Americans through the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). The email, targeting recipients of Medicare updates, featured a letter from President Biden, touting “historic reforms” credited to Harris, who cast the tie-breaking vote for the Inflation Reduction Act. Many argue that using government resources for campaign-related activities is a violation of Federal Election Commission (FEC) regulations and the Hatch Act, which restricts political activity by federal employees. Recipients described the email as a campaign ad for the administration and voiced concerns about its appropriateness. The email emphasizes lowering healthcare costs for seniors and states that taxpayers could save $160 billion over the next decade. This incident adds to ongoing concerns about the administration’s compliance with federal election laws.
