On the recordMay 25, 2023
Republicans packed their expensive suits and dresses this morning, and they are leaving town. The American economy is being held hostage by Republicans as they try to push their harmful agenda to strip millions of dollars from Americans and the benefits they rely on. In my home State of New York, the default on America bill could strip 2.3 million people of health insurance. The default on America bill would also strip nutrition programs from 126,000 women, infants, and children in New York State. The GOP plan to impose work requirements for SNAP recipients would also burden those recipients with useless paperwork while doing absolutely nothing to lower reliance on safety net programs. Republicans are trying to strip benefits from the American people. They are trying to pull the wool over our eyes. This is the default on America act working against America. ____________________
