"Harry Reid's debt ceiling bill offered nothing to solve America's enormous financial challenges. I voted no on the motion to proceed. Anytime an American President demands the authority to increase the debt burden on our children and grandchildren, that request should be accompanied by a plan to address the serious problem of unsustainable spending. President Obama has a historic opportunity to work with people like me that are willing to make the tough choices to put America back on a path to financial solvency. All Americans will pay a heavy price if President Obama fails to seize this opportunity." | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
