Carter | C001125 | troycarter.house.gov | troycarter | https://troycarter.house.gov/media/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Tonight, Congressman Troy A. Carter, Sr. (D-La.) released the following statement after voting yes on the Bipartisan Budget Agreement. “I voted for the Bipartisan Budget Agreement because it prevents a devastating default on our debt that would trigger a job-killing recession and raise costs for working families. Additionally, this agreement protects Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid, protects veterans’ health care, protects historic infrastructure and climate investments, and protects the 40 million borrowers in President Biden’s student debt relief plan. These are programs that so many Louisianans rely on. “It’s tragic that this measure could cost Louisiana $119 million in highway funding and over $150 million in other projects slated to be funded. Unfortunately, my Republican friends wrote a bill that will cost Louisiana things we really need. I am grateful it appears that the additional work requirements for SNAP and TANF will NOT impact our state. “I know that this is a compromise agreement. Neither Republicans nor Democrats got everything they wanted in this deal. To prevent a default on our debt, I voted yes on this legislation.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-07T23:55:44Z |
