Ron Estes Votes Against Debt Limit Suspension | 2021-09-29 | 2021 | 2021-09 | Republican | House | KS | Ron Estes | E000298 | estes.house.gov | estes | https://estes.house.gov/news/documentquery.aspx?DocumentTypeID=27 | scraper | WASHINGTON – Today Rep. Ron Estes (R-Kansas) voted against the Democrat proposal to raise the debt limit. Before votes, Rep. Estes addressed the house floor with his concerns. “We aren’t looking at this debt ceiling crisis in a vacuum – we could be voting on $5.5 trillion in more spending,” said Rep. Estes. “Families, farmers, businesses, and even state and local governments have to live within their means and make responsible financial decisions to be successful, but the attitude in Washington continues to pass on massive debt to future generations in exchange for our current lifestyle.” Click here to watch Rep. Estes' remarks. The bill passed the House 219 to 212, which will suspend the debt limit until December 2022. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:17:01Z |
