Claire McCaskill has Sold Out Missouri

It’s been revealed, Claire McCaskill’s husband was caught cutting business deals in the Senate dining room, selling tax credits tied to Obama’s stimulus money, money Claire McCaskill voted for. McCaskill uses her position and power to cash in. It’s no surprise that McCaskill thinks she’s above the law, she didn’t pay her taxes but voted to raise ours. The arrogance and corruption of Claire McCaskill. Dealing herself in. Selling us out.

Just last week, the National Legal and Policy Center identified $20 million dollars in stimulus funding that McCaskill voted to send to her husband’s businesses. That’s in addition to the $40 million of stimulus identified earlier this month.

Claire McCaskill and her husband, Joseph Shepard, profiteer off public programs that are suppose to help the poor. The website for Shepard’s company, Sugar Creek Realty, LLC, claims that they’ve facilitated $315 million in tax credits for a “representative” set of affordable housing projects—not the full project list. Shepard’s businesses syndicate those tax credits for their clients. Assuming that they make a gain of 10% to 25% in tax credit arbitrage, Shepard’s companies have realized $31 million to $79 million in revenue from just those representative projects.
