    Unchecked spending is the main driver of our national debt, and by 2028, it will constitute a whopping 15% of our GDP. This is simply unsustainable. Yet there are no commonsense safeguards to rein in spending beyond our budget. (1/4)

        This week, in a fleeting moment of bipartisanship, the House voted to consider my legislation to take spending off autopilot. Amid the partisan caps bill put forth and then pulled by @HouseDemocrats, I was pleased my Spending Safeguard Amendment was accepted for debate. (2/4)

        While @HouseDemocrats' budget itself ultimately didn’t come for a vote, I'm encouraged by the House's willingness to address out-of-control spending in Washington and look forward to future opportunities to advance my Spending Safeguard Act as we debate a budget. (3/4)

        Why are taxpayers footing a $20 million dollar bill for special treatment demanded by @BetsyDeVosED ?

        Such as the unchecked effects of the Trump tax cuts that you voted for. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/u-budget-deficit-widens-691-183134524.html …

        And yet you passed a tax cut putting us deeper in debt, hypocrisy runs deep in the Republican/Trump cult.

        You may talk about spending, after you talk about tax cuts for billionaires. Until then 🤐

        Then start reducing spending on military hardware, and take a paycut.
