Klobuchar 'very disappointed' in Murkowski over 'big, beautiful bill' support [View all]
Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) is criticizing Sen. Lisa Murkowski for the Alaska Republican’s decisive vote to advance the GOP’s “big, beautiful bill” last week.
“I was very disappointed, putting it mildly,” Klobuchar told MSNBC host Jen Psaki.
Klobuchar also attacked a provision in the bill that will delay federal cuts to the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) for states with high payment error rates, which includes Alaska.
“They wanted to get rid of waste, fraud and abuse? They’re actually encouraging it,” she said. “If I’m a governor in a state, I’m like, ‘get my error rate up,’ because it could save me a billion dollars a year on a state budget.”
