It`s time to call the Republicans out over this. Are you kidding me? On the debt ceiling. When Donald Trump was president and needed to raise the debt ceiling over and over again, Democrats said yes, we get it. And what are we trying to…

Will you commit to recuse yourself from working on any matters related to your former clients for 4 years if confirmed?
