Congress Passes McCarthy’s Debt Ceiling Proposal, Now Heads to Senate

1

Every Democrat voted against it. They are on the record for increasing inflation and driving the country deeper into insolvency and ruin.

Fox News: House Republicans on Wednesday delivered Speaker Kevin McCarthy the biggest win of his tenure leading the chamber so far by passing his bill to raise the debt limit and slash spending, a bill that serves as the GOP’s position on how to avoid a debt crisis in the coming weeks. The bill passed in a narrow 217-215 vote. Every Democrat voted against it, as expected, along with four Republicans. Republicans cast the vote as a win that puts them in the driver’s seat in negotiations they hope can happen with President Biden in the coming weeks. Biden has refused to entertain anything other than a clean increase in the debt ceiling, while Republicans insist he should agree to some trimming in the federal budget as a condition of raising the government’s borrowing limit (Fox News).

Spencer Brown: In any case, the debt ceiling ball is now entirely in the Democrats’ court — both at the White House and in the U.S. Senate. If Democrats don’t propose a plan and offer to negotiate with McCarthy to find common ground, then Biden and Schumer will own the first default in United States history (Townhall).
