2026年5月11日，华盛顿特区美国国会大厦，怀俄明州联邦参议员辛西娅·拉米斯在参议院会议厅外接受记者采访。
共和党籍参议员阻挠了一项于周二提出的决议，该决议批评特朗普政府近期使用纳税人资金投放宣传总统唐纳德·特朗普的广告。
怀俄明州共和党参议员辛西娅·拉米斯反对这项由民主党人牵头的议案，该议案指出纳税人资金不应被用于这些争议性广告。
这项议案由新罕布什尔州民主党参议员玛吉·哈桑提出，谴责本届政府利用公款投放白宫近期的广告。决议内容写道：“参议院认为，2026年9月播出的宣传唐纳德·特朗普总统的广告，即便标注了‘由美国政府付费’字样，也不应由美国联邦政府出资。”
两党议员都批评总统使用纳税人资金投放广告。参议院多数党领袖约翰·图恩周一告诉记者：“这是一个很好的信息，我喜欢这个信息，但这不应该用纳税人的钱来支付。”即将退休的德克萨斯州共和党参议员约翰·科宁补充道，这么做“不合适”，“这根本没有争议”。
周二在参议院会议厅，哈桑在提交这项决议时表示：“美国民众希望他们的税款用于帮助民众、保障民众安全，而非用于总统的宣传活动。他可以用自己的财富投放任何他想投放的广告，但用纳税人辛勤赚来的钱，他必须遵守法律。”
拉米斯呼应了白宫的说法，称这些广告类似于往届政府发布的公共服务公告，而非竞选广告。
“两党总统几十年来都在利用公共服务公告直接向美国民众发声，”这位怀俄明州共和党人说道，“这些公益广告的核心信息很简单：美国价值观值得捍卫，以抵御共产主义和社会主义的失败意识形态。如果新罕布什尔州参议员担心的是这个，那我认为这更多反映了她所在政党的立场，而非这则公益广告本身。”
近期播出的一则由纳税人出资的电视广告画面中，特朗普沿着走廊行走，背景音频是他的讲话：“这是最终之战。”
“我们将驱逐共产主义者、马克思主义者和法西斯主义者。我们将摆脱仇视我们国家的病态政治阶层。我们将击败假新闻媒体，我们将一劳永逸地将美国从这些恶棍手中解放出来，”特朗普在广告中说道。
哈桑试图通过“一致同意请求”这一快速程序通过这项批评使用纳税人资金投放广告的决议。任何一名参议员都可以反对这类请求。
唐纳德·特朗普总统周三为这些广告辩护，称其并非政治广告，因为他并未参选。
“首先，我并没有在竞选公职，所以这些广告是我投放的，但我并没有在竞选，我也没有提及任何人，”特朗普在椭圆形办公室告诉记者。
总统将这些广告描述为爱国主义宣传而非竞选素材。“但当我谈论让美国再次伟大、让我们的国家更强大时，这是一则全国性广告，是为了弘扬我们国家的精神，”他说道。

GOP senator blocks resolution that criticized Trump’s taxpayer-funded ads

A GOP senator blocked a resolution on Tuesday that criticized the Trump administration’s recent taxpayer-funded ads promoting President Donald Trump.
Republican Sen. Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming objected to the Democrat-led measure, which stated that taxpayer funds should not have been used for the controversial ads.
The measure, from Democratic Sen. Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire, slammed the administration for using government funds for the White House’s recent advertisements. “It is the sense of the Senate that the advertisements promoting President Donald Trump that aired in September 2026, which included the direct language ‘paid for by the U.S. Government,’ should not be paid for by the United States government,” it read.
Senators on both sides of the aisle have criticized the president for using taxpayer dollars for the ads. Senate Majority Leader John Thune told reporters on Monday, “It’s a great message. I like the message, but it shouldn’t be paid for with taxpayer dollars,” and retiring GOP Sen. John Cornyn of Texas added, “no” it’s not appropriate. “It’s not even a close question,” he said.
On the Senate floor on Tuesday, as she introduced her resolution, Hassan said, “The American people want their tax dollars to go towards helping them and keeping them safe, not propaganda campaigns for a president. He’s welcome to run whatever ads he wants with his own riches, but with taxpayer dollars, money that people have worked hard to earn, he needs to follow the law.”
Lummis echoed the White House’s own argument that the ads are comparable to public service announcements released during previous administrations, and are not campaign ads.
“Presidents of both parties have used public service announcements to speak directly to the American people for decades,” the Wyoming Republican said. “The message at the heart of these PSAs is a simple one: American values are worth defending against the failed ideologies of communism and socialism. If that is what has the senator from New Hampshire concerned, I’d suggest the concern says more about her side of the aisle than it does about the PSA.”
One recently released taxpayer-funded television ad features imagery of Trump walking down a hall as audio plays of him saying “this is the final battle.”
“We will cast out the communists, Marxists, and fascists. We will throw off the sick political class that hates our country. We will rout the fake news media, and we will liberate America from these villains once and for all,” Trump says in the ad.
Hassan attempted to pass the resolution criticizing the use of taxpayer funding for the ads via a fast-track process known as a unanimous consent request. Any single senator can object to such a request.
President Donald Trump on Wednesday defended the ads, arguing they are not political because he is not on the ballot.
“Well, I’m not running for office, first of all, and so the ads are given by me, but I’m not running for office, and I don’t talk about anybody,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office.
The president described the spots as patriotic messaging rather than campaign material. “But when I’m talking about making America great, making our country great, that’s a countrywide ad. That’s an ad for the spirit of our country,” he said.
