Juan Ciscomani, is a career right-wing activist trying to hide his extreme MAGA past. Before going to Congress, Ciscomani served for 14 years on the board of a fringe group called Patriot Academy that hosts extreme right-wing speakers and promotes climate deniers. Now that he’s trying to hide his extreme MAGA Republican ties, Ciscomani wants to greenwash over his 14% lifetime LCV score and his record of voting to kill off clean energy tax incentives.
In his short time in Congress, Juan Ciscomani has cozied up to special interests, taking $12,725 in campaign contributions from the mining industry and voting for a bill to allow a foreign-owned company to dump toxic mining waste on public lands in the Santa Rita Mountains. Pima County residents have been opposed to the project for more than a decade because it will deplete the water supply in the County while polluting local air and water. Ciscomani has also taken $97,008 in campaign contributions from the oil and gas industry since taking office and voted to sell out our public lands to oil companies.
