House Freedom Caucus Slams Biden-McCarthy on Debt Limit Deal
Hard-right members of the House Freedom Caucus urged Republicans not to vote for Speaker Kevin McCarthy’s deal with President Biden to raise the debt ceiling.
-
“The speaker himself has said on numerous occasions the greatest threat to America is our debt, and now is the time to act. We had the time to act. And this deal fails. Fails completely. And that’s why these members and others will be absolutely opposed to the deal. And we will do everything in our power to stop it.” “The Republican conference right now has been torn asunder, and we are working hard to try to put it back together again this weekend by making sure that this bill gets stopped. I want to be very clear, not one Republican should vote for this deal. Not one. We will continue to fight it today, tomorrow and no matter what happens, there’s going to be a reckoning about what just occured unless we stop this bill by tomorrow.”
