"This is reckless, and we need to be competitive in the global economy, and we cannot do that if we spend money we do not have."

"I am one of millions of Americans that had planned to purchase a house that cannot because my 2 1/2 percent mortgage is looking up at a 7 percent interest rate."

"I do not think any American believed that that reduced inflation, and that money needs to go back to addressing our debt and our deficit and we cannot spend recklessly."

"We have been fighting about this for years, and there has been little cooperation from across the aisle."
