ZACK SPACE: THE CORRUPTION HYPOCRITE
Zack Space Talked-the-Talk on Corruption While a Candidate: "I don't care if you are a Republican or a Democrat; if you don't practice the highest of ethical standards, you must step aside," Space said. "The actions of Representatives William Jefferson and Bob Ney are not about Democrats and Republicans, they're about right and wrong. Zack Space, www.zackspace.org
And in another opportunity to put partisan politics aside for the sake of cleaning up the mess in Washington, Zack Space went back on his word by voting to give John Murtha a pass on a significant ethical breach. Murtha threatened to cut off earmarks for not ONE, but TWO members of Congress who voted against a Murtha-sponsored project that has been deemed wasteful and a "boondoggle." (House Roll Call 402) |

"Congressman Space believes that, following the tragic events of 9/11, homeland security must be one of Congress' very top priorities. He believes that Congress must be committed to doing everything possible to make sure that Americans are safe from the threat of terrorism."

Zack Space alienated himself from not only the bipartisan group of U.S. Senators who strongly support the Protect America Act, but also the American public as a whole, and he supported a sham FISA bill in hopes of finding political cover from voters who are tired of his bobbing and weaving on the issue of national security. (House Roll Call 145)
Don?t Include: Shuler
Zack Space voted in lock-step with the liberal Democrat leadership to fund duplicitous pet projects over critical human intelligence. (House Roll Call 117)
Zack Space continued to abdicate his duty to protect the American people and instead play political games by voting repeatedly to block a vote on the Senate?s bipartisan Protect America Act. (House Roll Call 116)
By blatantly blocking the renewal of the critical terrorist surveillance program, Zack Space prolonged the Democrats? payback to trial lawyers who are filing frivolous lawsuits against the telecom companies who fulfilled their patriotic duty by aiding the government in terrorist surveillances in the aftermath of 9/11. (House Roll Call 73)
Zack Space completely abandoned his responsibility to ensure that our intelligence officials have all of the necessary tools to provide for our national security by allowing the terrorist surveillance program to expire, leaving Americans? security in serious jeopardy (House Roll Call 48 and 53)
This summer, Republicans were able to force a vote to close the terrorist loophole, but Zack Space voted for the Democrats? FISA legislation which reverses this course and endangers our nation?s security. (House Roll Call 1120)
Zack Space voted to jeopardize our national security when he sided with her democrat leadership to weaken our nation?s intelligence laws and to reopen the terrorist loophole. (House Roll Call 1119)

"Availability of health care is now a problem that primarily affects our country's most important segment-the middle class."

Space voted to cut Medicare benefits for seniors, ration government-run healthcare and raise taxes to pay for the massive bureaucratic expansion. (House Roll Call 787)

| Illegal Immigration |
|
|
|
|
"From the outset of his campaign for Congress, Zack Space has said that the American government needs to do more to carry out and enforce the immigration laws we have on the books. Unfortunately, too many in Washington DC continue to persist with immigration plans that provide amnesty for the millions of immigrants who are here illegally...He remains adamant that any proposal to address the immigration crisis should not provide a gift to immigrants who have already broken the law. Such an action would burden American taxpayers and increase competition for jobs."

Despite the nearly 12 million illegal immigrants in the United States today, and
an ever increasing security threat resulting from porous borders, Space is
doing the bidding of his liberal leaders in Washington by blocking a vote on a
bipartisan bill aimed at addressing America's border security and illegal
immigration crisis (Discharge
Petition).
Space voted to give federal handouts to illegal immigrants by voting to gut the requirements in the State Children's Health Insurance Program law, which requires states to verify citizenship before providing health benefits. (House Roll Call 787)
Space voted to allow illegal immigrants to form unions in the United States.
(House Roll Call 117)

Rep. Space and his Democrat leaders have failed to reveal their
secret "commonsense plan to help bring down skyrocketing gas prices." In the

how she plans to relieve their pain at the pump (House Roll Call 211).

taxes on Americans by $683 billion (House Roll Call 382).

Zack Space had the opportunity to pass an AMT patch free of tax increases, but voted with his Democrat leaders to kill it. (House Roll Call 1152) Zack Space then voted in lock-step with his Democrat leaders to kill a clean AMT patch, instead voting for burdening tax increases that will negatively impact the competitiveness of U.S. businesses and the American economy. (House Roll Call 1153)
Zack Space had the opportunity to bring a clean Alternative Minimum Tax (AMT) patch to a vote, that would protect 23 million Americans from being hit with a massive tax hike on middle class American families, but instead voted in lock-step with his Democrat leadership, moving one step closer toward imposing a massive tax increase on middle class American families.
