I received a bogus survey from Congressman Kinzinger. Deceptive propaganda on the taxpayers dime. [View all]

The taxpayer funded mailing is titled Senior's Survey and claims he is standing strong for seniors. The first question on the Senior Survey is "Do you consider yourself to be pro-life?". The possible answers are "Yes", "No", and "Unsure". I'm sorry but I fail to understand the relevance to seniors. Is he fishing for donors? Sure seems like a question that requires a lot more options to me.
The second is a list to check on items that he should focus on: Tax Reform, Protecting the unborn, National Security, Upholding the 2nd Amendment, Supporting Veterans, Investing in Transportation, and Other. It requires postage to return the Survey.While it is not the level of money stolen from taxpayers to fund the GOP Benghazi Super Pac, it thoroughly disgusts me that they do not hesitate to lie, cheat, and steal while we pay for our own destruction.
