‘During Miss Jean-Pierre’s tenure as press secretary, she has repeatedly lied to the American people and acted in a condescending manner toward reporters, and also violated the Hatch Act,’ says Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) .
An amendment to an appropriations package proposed by a GOP House rep aims to cut the salary of Biden Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre to $1 for repeatedly lying to Americans.
On Thursday, Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) introduced the amendment to reduce Jean-Pierre’s salary, explaining the press secretary has abused her position by constantly spewing misinformation to the American public, mistreating reporters, and hating the Jewish people.
Read a transcript of Tenney’s introduction of her amendment to H.R. 4664, the $25 billion Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act of 2024:
I rise today to offer an amendment to reduce the salary of Karine Jean-Pierre, the White House Press Secretary, to $1.
Mr. Speaker, during Miss Jean-Pierre’s tenure as press secretary, she has repeatedly lied to the American people and acted in a condescending manner toward reporters, and also violated the Hatch Act.
Just to name a few of her lies, Miss Jean-Pierre has claimed, one, illegal immigration is down under the Biden Administration. She also claimed nobody is just walking in across the southern border. She also claimed that the 2016 election was stolen. She also claimed that Governor Brian Kemp stole the 2018 governor’s race from Stacy Abrams. She also claimed that Biden’s stimulus bill did not impact inflation. She also claimed that critical race theory or its equivalent isn’t being taught in our schools. She also claimed that nobody has done more for the southern border or our border in general than Joe Biden.
How can somebody with such a history of deceit continue to serve as the liaison for the president and the American people? The American people should not be forced to pay the salary of an individual who dispenses bold-faced lies to the American people while they foot the bill.
Miss Jean-Pierre also a history of anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist rhetoric. For example, she called AIPAC racist and Islamophobic for supporting Israel. She wrote an op-ed stating that pro-Israel policies and values are not progressive values, which I think many of her Democratic colleagues even would contest.
Mr. Speaker, I urge all colleagues to support this common-sense amendment to use the Holman rule to reduce Karen Jean-Pierre’s salary, the White House Press Secretary, to $1.
And with that, I reserve.
Following its introduction, Democrat Rep. Steny H. Hoyer (Md.) pushed back against the proposal claiming it was “another unserious amendment” from Republicans, to which Tenney responded it was put forward in good faith.
According to congressional reports, Jean-Pierre currently brings home a yearly salary of around $155,000 to $180,000.
RollCall.com reports: “The House defeated Tenney’s amendment, 165-257.”
The bill was ultimately withdrawn before a final vote.
In one of the latest examples of the press secretary demonstrating condescension towards the press, Jean-Pierre refused to respond to a reporter asking about subpoenas issued by the House Oversight Committee for Hunter and James Biden.
