Amodei | A000369 | amodei.house.gov | amodei | https://amodei.house.gov/news-releases | scraper | Although symbolic -- as the agreement to increase the debt-limit was reached prior to my election -- this vote is my opportunity to record opposition, on behalf of my constituents, to adding another $1.2 trillion to our national debt. IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Brian Baluta (202) 225-6155 January 18, 2011 WASHINGTON, D.C. --Congressman Mark Amodei (NV-2) today voted for H.J.RES. 98, disapproving of the President's exercise of authority to increase the debt limit. He is a cosponsor of the resolution and issued the following statement: "Although symbolic -- as the agreement to increase the debt-limit was reached prior to my election -- this vote is my opportunity to record opposition, on behalf of my constituents, to adding another $1.2 trillion to our national debt. "We are already the most debt-ridden nation in history and Washington's business as usual attitude indicates that it does not grasp the gravity of our crisis. "As I said when I voted for the Balance Budget Amendment, Washington's fatal spending problem is every American's problem because it's dragging down our economy and our way of life. Unless we get spending under control now, the country we give our grandchildren will be in far worse shape than the one we inherited." # # # 2012-01-18 13:51:00 2012-01-18 13:51:00 2012-01-18 13:47:00 False False | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T21:10:31Z |
