Caught Lying: Amish Shah Lies About His Weak On Fentanyl, Open Borders Record

After years of backing open borders policies and even voting against getting tough on fentanyl trafficking, today socialist Amish Shah released a desperate new ad lying about his policy record.

“Socialist Amish Shah spent years fueling the border crisis, supporting open borders policies and voting against cracking down on fentanyl. Now Socialist Shah is lying with deceptive ads because voters rejected his open borders record in 2024.” – NRCC Spokesperson Ben Petersen

Background:

Amish Shah touted a “phony record” on fentanyl:

• Shah voted against legislation establishing a drug trafficking homicide crime.
• Shah voted against border security funding and local police funding to stop fentanyl in the state legislature.
