This is old news, but galling nonetheless:
Freshman U.S. Rep. Tom Rooney, R-Tequesta, and every other Republican in the
House voted against a Democrat-drafted $787 billion economic stimulus package.
But now that President Obama has signed the measure into law, Rooney has added
his signature to a Florida plea for $2.7 billion in stimulus money for public
schools.
I'd like to know how Congressman Rooney can sign on to this while stating that he "cannot support the Democrats’ expensive stimulus bill that levees our economic future on the backs of our children while spending billions on projects that will do little to stimulate the economy". There is no statement about this on his Congressional website.
