On the recordMay 25, 2023
I am joined by over 80 of my Democratic colleagues to say the quiet part out loud: MAGA Republicans want us to default. They want to run out the clock. They want to lead our government by chaos. By sending us home, by refusing to do their jobs, they are making that crystal clear. Unless we give in to devastating cuts, they will push us into a devastating default. It is the American people who will suffer--teachers, seniors, kids, families, veterans, the hungry, and the sick. To my Republican colleagues this Memorial Day weekend: It is time to be a patriot. Now is the time to sign our discharge petition and end this catastrophe in the making. ____________________
