Democratic Rep. Ruben Gallego slammed independent Sen. Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona on Tuesday for backing a bank deregulation bill he says contributed to the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank, highlighting Sinema's Wall Street ties as he campaigns for her seat.
The contrast over the 2018 legislation feeds Gallego's push to portray Sinema as a friend of powerful interests, a central theme of the Senate campaign he launched in January.
