Allen (GA-12) today released the following statement on House Democrats\u2019 passage of a resolution to start Congress\u2019 work on Biden\u2019s reckless $3.5 trillion tax and spending bill:\n\n\u201cOur nation is in crisis. Inflation is skyrocketing and small business owners are struggling to get employees back to work. Instead of focusing on the immediate crisis in Afghanistan, or working to get our economy back on track, House Democrats are spending precious time to move forward with Biden\u2019s $3.5 trillion tax and spending spree that is riddled with radical, socialist policies.\n\n\u201cSome of the worst provisions in the resolution include directing committees to provide amnesty to illegal immigrants, eliminate states\u2019 right-to-work protections, subsidize blue state taxes for the wealthy, expand government-controlled health care, and much more.\n\n\u201cNot only are we burdening our children, and children\u2019s children, with the highest sustained federal spending levels in American history, but in the near term this spending spree will kill American jobs and worsen the ongoing economic crisis.\u201d", 1, "2026-03-30T01:40:41Z", "2026-04-06T20:11:17Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://allen.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=4805"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8521920535713434, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
