• Minnesota Feeding Our Future fraud scandal ($250 million COVID-era child nutrition fraud) 105 days silent
  Expected position: As a Democratic representative from Minnesota and the ranking member of the House Agriculture Committee, Craig would be expected to comment forcefully on the largest COVID-era fraud scheme charged in the nation, which took place in her home state. Evidence of activity on adjacent topics: During this window, Craig posted on social media about the USDA funding freeze (January 2026) and introduced legislation on federal program fraud (January 2026), but for months as the scandal dominated Minnesota headlines, she was 'conspicuously silent.' The Daily Caller noted she had 'largely avoided commenting on the multi-year welfare fraud scandal' during this period. On December 17, 2025, she praised Governor Tim Walz at a public event without addressing the fraud that occurred on his watch.

• H.R. 875 ↗ NAY 2025-06-26
  Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act
  why contradicted?

  [reversal] After voting for the Laken Riley Act just months earlier, Craig voted against this bill to deport noncitizens convicted of DUI — a notable split that drew sharp criticism from Republican campaign arms and highlighted the evolving tension in her immigration record as she ran for Senate.
• H.R. 29 ↗ YEA 2025-01-07
  Laken Riley Act
  why contradicted?

  [reversal] Craig was the only Minnesota Democrat to vote for this bill, which expanded mandatory detention for undocumented immigrants. She reversed herself 14 months later in a Star Tribune op-ed, calling her vote a 'wrong decision' amid a heated Senate primary.

No documented broken promises on file.

• reversal SCORE 90
  Craig was one of only 48 House Democrats to vote for the Laken Riley Act in January 2025 — the only Minnesota Democrat to do so. Fourteen months later, amid a competitive Democratic Senate primary and after ICE's Operation Metro Surge in Minnesota, she published an op-ed stating she regretted her vote. Her primary opponent, Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan, had repeatedly attacked her for the vote.
• statement_vs_disclosure SCORE 60
  Craig has positioned herself as a fighter against Big Pharma, sponsoring insulin cost-cap legislation and championing Medicare drug price negotiation. However, her top campaign contributors include health insurers, pharmaceutical companies, and health professionals — industries that have lobbied against Medicare negotiation and drug pricing reforms.
