Lauren Boebert has no shame and this letter to Pete Buttigieg proves it
letter last week to Transportation Secretary Buttigieg requesting $33million to support the South Bridge Project in Glenwood Springs, Colorado.Yes, the same Pete Buttigieg whom she mocked a few months ago when he became a dad to twins.
Boebert posted a video in which she lambasted Buttigieg for taking paternity leave, joking that he was trying to learn how to “chest feed” his kids.Related: Lauren Boebert attacks Pete Buttigieg over taking paternity leaveIn her letter, Boebert said, “Glenwood Springs will construct a new bridge connection that will provide a critical second emergency route/evacuation access between State Highway 82 and the western side of the Roaring Fork River in the City’s South Corridor.”She says she believes the project, “aligns with the Rural Surface Transportation program’s goals to improve and expand the surface transportation infrastructure in rural areas.”She signed it off by saying, “I respectfully urge your full and fair consideration of this competitive grant application.”In an email to the Durango Herald, Boebert saw no contradiction in her request for federal funding for the new bridge after slamming the Infrastructure bill.
She suggested she was all for investing in infrastructure, but pointed to her own ‘America’s Infrastructure Modernization Act’ as the best solution, and not Biden’s bill.“I am for investing in rural Colorado, but Biden’s so-called infrastructure bill was not the right way to do it,” she said. “Less than 10% of (the) $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill went to roads and bridges.
