Today, House Republicans went to work on both of those problems,” said Johnson. “The fiscal state of our nation is dire. Our plan will grow the economy, decrease unnecessary spending, increase opportunity for Americans, and allow the Treasury to pay back what we already owe. I fought to have a cap on federal spending and work requirements for welfare recipients included in this package, and I am pleased to see those priorities pass the House overwhelmingly. “President Biden has ignored Speaker McCarthy for nearly 90 days – that’s not leadership. I encourage the President to get serious about our out-of-control debt and come to the negotiating table as soon as possible. The ball is in his court.” Background: | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T23:44:29Z |
