Joe Cunningham rejects all PAC and lobbyist money
Less than three months before the general election, Nancy Mace, the Republican challenger in SC-01, has crafted a new message for her flailing campaign: “I cash every check.” The not-so-subtle talking point is an obvious sign of desperation and a signal to Big Oil and Big Pharma that her vote is up for sale.

Quintin: “In that commercial, did you or your campaign accept any money from any
companies or lobbyists?”
Mace: “Well, yeah, I mean I cash every check.”

Mace: “I’m cashing every check that someone sends. I’m not turning anything away.”

Mace: “I will cash every check.”
The unusual but unsurprising campaign motto is in line with Mace’s reputation as an out-of-touch and self-promoting politician. Whether it’s her flip-flop on offshore drilling or voting against common-sense drug monitoring that would have helped fight South Carolina’s opioid crisis, Nancy Mace is a rubber stamp for corporate special interests and their Big Money agenda. Unlike Nancy, Rep. Joe Cunningham rejects all PAC money because he knows corporate special interests are corrupting Congress with their campaign contributions and lobbyists. Rep. Cunningham has been consistently ranked one of the most bipartisan members of Congress, he passed a bipartisan bill in the House to ban offshore drilling, and he has given the Lowcountry a voice in Congress.
