Republicans continue to show us where their interests lie.
John,
The fight surrounding the debt ceiling is heating up.
After voting several times during the Trump presidency to raise the debt ceiling, Republicans are deciding to dig their heels in the sand. Despite narrowly passing the new debt ceiling proposal, it would come with major strings attached — reversing some of the progress our movement made last year by repealing key parts of the Inflation Reduction Act and eliminating the Biden administration's student loan forgiveness initative.
This is unacceptable. While Republicans have no problem running up the debt through tax breaks for billionaires and the wealthy, they're showing us who they are — bought-and-paid-for hacks who will do anything to maintain their money and power.
Can you chip in $5 today to help sustain our movement so Cori can continue to fight for everyday people and hold the GOP accountable?
For years, Republicans have used the very process they're using now to threaten to tank the economy for years. And despite taking emergency measures, the federal government's tap is expected to run dry this summer. Any default would hurt our economy, bring even higher interest rates, create a surge of unemployment and would likely cause a recession.
We won't be fooled: When the GOP talks about "fiscal responsibility" this is nothing more than an attempt to impose their extremist and unpopular agenda on the rest of us. We won't let this happen. Will you chip in $5 today to help power Cori's efforts in Congress to avoid economic catastrophe?
