    This spending proposal is disgusting and reckless—the biggest spending increase since 2009. I urge every American to speak out against this fiscal insanity.https://twitter.com/senatemajldr/status/961299456229609472 …

    This bill represents a significant, bipartisan step forward. I urge every Senator to review this legislation and join in voting to advance it.

        Think how much worse the deficit will be with this spending combined with the tax cut you voted for. #nocredibility

        Why is it "conservatives" typically aren't fiscally conservative? You're one of the few. They demonize the poor to increase military spending. I'd rather see my money going towards helping lives rather than taking them in illegal wars.

        Maybe GOP shouldn't have given that massive tax cut to wealthy corporations and individuals that didn't need it. Any cuts that happen now that you want to be "responsible" will hurt people who don't deserve it. Vets, seniors, poor kids, disabled.

        If you’d actually voted no on the $1 TRILLION plus #TaxScamBill, maybe you’d actually have a leg to stand on on this one. But...you didn’t, and you don’t.

        You don’t have to be an economist to understand that removing $1T from the economy and simultaneously trying to pay your existing obligations while hoping for marginal economic growth after the wealthy have gotten theirs is a bad idea. You just have to understand math.

        ...Or history. In 1981, Ronald Reagan signed the biggest tax cut in history into law, and “simplified” the tax code with another cut in 1986. Both resulted in declining revenues for the treasury.

        Reagan also raised taxes eleven times over the course of his presidency, including the 1982 increase that was a larger share of GDP than the Clinton tax increase in 1993, in the name of “fiscal responsibility.” Reagan is still the patron saint of the GOP.

        By the time Reagan left office in 1989, national debt had tripled, and the US went from the largest creditor nation in the world to the largest debtor nation. And this at a time there were no major military engagements draining the treasury for 15+ years.

        If none of this sounds familiar, @justinamash can be forgiven since he was 6 months old when Reagan was elected, though with things like the library and the internet his lack of research cannot be abided.

        you just approved a tax cut with NO fiscal responsibility and you are talking about an increase that happened nearly a decade ago. get a grip on your arguments, you can not make them out of convenience and ignore consistency
