In an interview with Fox News, Democrat Whip Katherine Clark said: "Of course there will be families that are going to suffer... but it is one of the few leverage times we have." “Democrat Whip Katherine Clark admitted what we all knew — Democrats are fine with Americans suffering if it gives them leverage for their radical political demands to give healthcare for illegal aliens, support LGBT programs in foreign countries, and add on $1.5 trillion in spending,” said Congressman Norman. “House Republicans passed a clean bill to keep the government open and pay our troops. It’s time for Democrats to stop playing politics and put the American people first.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T15:10:06Z |
