I could not, in good faith, vote in favor of this legislation which only adds billions to the credit card bill our children will be left to pay. America has a significant and dangerous spending problem that most of Washington is content to ignore. On behalf of my constituents, I will not ignore this fact. Kicking the can down the road is what caused this problem and Washington has to muster the political courage to deal with it for the future of our country. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
