Here is the latest instance of a Republican trying to take credit for the benefits of the Covid Relief Bill that they voted against.

And naturally, the lie was told by none other than Madison Cawthorn, the fringe GOP flavor of the month.

The original 'stolen legislation valor' was perpetrated by Sen. Roger Wicker of Mississippi, who touted benefits to restaurant workers DESPITE VOTING AGAINST THE BILL.

Here was another instance in which GOP Rep. Maria Salazar played some games with timing and semantics in order to mislead her constituents that she had a part in passing Covid Relief.

She didn't.

And then there was GOP Rep. Mike Garcia, trying to convince his constituents that he had some influence over the stimulus checks that went to so many Americans.

He didn't.

We have new entries into the 'stolen legislative valor' database.

This time it's Long Island GOP Congressmen Lee Zeldin and Andrew Garbarino trying to take credit for MTA and LIRR funding despite voting *against* the Covid bill that actually granted it.

Here's yet another Republican member of Congress promoting - and subtly trying to take credit for - something that they voted against:

Here we go again.

Now it's Mike Pence's brother Greg Pence trying to take credit for things in the Covid Relief bill THAT HE VOTED AGAINST.

The Restaurant Revitalization Fund is just exposing one Republican hypocrite after another.

Claudia Tenney voted AGAINST this proposal which she is now seeking to promote:

Now it’s GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik’s turn.

280 characters in a tweet and she couldn’t spare any to inform her constituents that she voted AGAINST
the Reataurant Revitalization Fund that she is now promoting.

Republicans are actively trying to take credit for what every single one of them tried to politicize, obstruct and derail:

The Democrats' massively popular Covid Relief Bill.

Don't let these hypocrites get away with it.

Guess who is trying to take credit *for* Covid Relief legislation that they voted *against*?

None other than Mitch McConnell.

Important for everyone to know what hypocrites these people are.

Nice.

Joe Biden has been keeping his own list of Republicans who voted against the Covid Relief Bill yet are trying to take credit for it.

We won't forget.
