Senator Deb Fischer Abandons Nebraska Values in Voting in Favor of PROMESA Bailout

WASHINGTON, June 29, 2016 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Today, in response to Nebraska Senator Deb Fischer's vote in favor of cloture for the PROMESA Puerto Rico bailout legislation, Center for Individual Freedom President Jeffrey Mazella issued the following statement:

"Senator Fischer's vote in favor of bailing out Puerto Rico on the backs of Nebraska's savers and seniors stands in stark contrast to the values of Nebraska, and to how her colleagues in Nebraska and Iowa, Senators Grassley, Ernst and Sasse voted. PROMESA stands to increase borrowing costs for Nebraska, Iowa and other states and municipalities throughout the nation."
