"After months of backroom dealings with no input from Republicans, Speaker Pelosi held a vote in the dead of night to pass the "Bipartisan" Infrastructure Package and tee up the massive socialist spending spree linked to it, known as the Build Back Better Act. "I voted against these bills because I could never in good faith vote to pass legislation that would harm the people I took an oath to represent. "Not only does the infrastructure package fall short of providing the much-needed reforms and funding Central Washington deserves, but the House Democrat leadership refused to consider any amendments offered by Republicans throughout this so-called process. Both pieces of legislation are directly tied to tax increases on Washington families who are already struggling with crippling inflation and supply chain shortages. "If the Democrats had truly operated in good faith, we could have provided more to the American people while costing them less. The Democrats' inability to do so is a failure to provide the leadership to the American people they purport to represent." | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:30:49Z |
