Political Quotes

On the recordDecember 5, 2023
Yesterday, our national debt eclipsed $33.8 trillion. This means that we have now crossed a dangerous new threshold of over $100,000 of debt for every man, woman, and child in the United States. This rampant and wasteful spending has only been made worse by President Biden's reckless budgets that have led to soaring inflation and more pain for Pennsylvanians. From canceling student loans to handing out cash reimbursements for electric vehicles, Joe Biden has shown that he is more worried about appeasing his far-left base than our financial well-being. In the past year, the average family was forced to pay an additional $11,000 to cover the cost of just everyday goods. It is time to cut spending and stop borrowing from China to pay for reckless liberal policies. The trillions of dollars that we pay in interest on this debt does nothing to keep our Nation safe. It does nothing to fund Medicare. It does nothing to secure our open southern border. It is time to pass a Federal budget that addresses our debt and puts an end to the mismanagement of our finances brought on by President Biden's Green New Deal initiatives.
