The massive social spending bill the House passed just 2 weeks ago is a disaster for our future. If the policies in the build back framework are made permanent, this spending would amount to $4.12 trillion over the next 10 years. I always say that other Members of Congress who write these bills must not know how to count because the revenue for this bill is just not there. We should not spend more than what we have. Families don't run their households this way. The government shouldn't either. I do not want my kids and grandkids paying for this irresponsible spending. Americans are already experiencing record-high inflation. The trillions in new spending will only make costs higher. I continue to fight against the government taking more of our hard-earned money. ____________________
