"It is a disservice to our nation's small firms to oversimplify this issue, as a mere consequence of federal spending."

"The effect of inflation on small businesses is no secret. It can dig into margins and contribute to tighter monetary conditions, limiting access to capital and the ability to grow and expand."

"my colleagues on the other side of the aisle constantly use this fact to call for dramatic spending cuts"

"these tax cuts have added a dramatic $10 trillion to the debt since their enactment"
