US Sen. Kyrsten Sinema has told colleagues she opposes raising taxes on corporations and wealthy Americans as part of President Joe Biden and congressional Democrats' $3.5 trillion spending proposal, The New York Times reported this week.
But the Democrat from Arizona, who once served as a spokesperson for the left-wing Green Party, didn't always object to making corporations and the rich "pay their fair share."
In a 2011 post on Twitter, Sinema - then a member of the Arizona state Senate - said doing so was only "common sense."
Sinema's liberal critics began pointing to that comment on Thursday. "So you're voting for Build Back Better, then?" asked Karoli Kuns, managing editor of the progressive blog Crooks and Liars.
