Why we checked itSpecific dollar figure attributed to opponent's voting record — verifiable against congressional vote history
What we foundPappas did vote for legislation containing significant energy-related taxes and fees (primarily the Inflation Reduction Act), but characterising this as simply voting for '$100 billion in energy taxes' omits that the same laws included substantial energy tax credits and incentives, and that the $100 billion figure originates from the Sununu campaign's own framing, which fact-checkers have found to be misleading.
