Akuperma is sadly correct. Jacob Lew has a reputation for being overly ideological and obstinate in his love for welfare programs.
If I were a senator, I’d proudly vote against him, with my kippah on, unlike many of our Orthodox-affiliated politicians.
I refer to politicians such as these as Orthodox-affiliated because affiliation with an Orthodox synagogue does not necessarily mean a person is a shomer mitzvot yid. There are many people who belonged to Orthodox Jewish Centers, Young Israels, etc. who are not religious.
