Last night, Senate Republicans unveiled their “stimulus” package.
This means the battle over the spending bill is heating up.
Which means we must do all we can -- as quickly as we can -- to show Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and the rest of the Senate that the American people do not want any more trillion dollar (or more) spending bills.
This is why it is vital that, if you have not yet done so, you sign your postcard to Senate Leader McConnell and your U.S. Senators opposing further “stimulus” spending.
And please forward this message to your family and friends and ask them to sign as well.
The Republican proposal contains bailouts for schools -- as long as they force children to abide by federal rules that turn schools into prisons -- businesses (which in practice means politically-connected crony capitalists), and other special privileges for certain state-favored interests.
It also forces businesses to abide by ALL federal mandates and “guidelines” -- like forcing every customer to wear a mask or be denied service. Those who refuse will be left vulnerable to crippling lawsuits.
Passage of the Republican plan, whether as a stand-alone bill or as part of a deal with the Democrats, would jeopardize our nation’s economic health by piling another trillion dollars on the national debt and expanding government control over our economic and personal lives. It even includes funding for H.R. 6666-style tracking and testing!
So please sign your postcard to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and your U.S. Senators opposing this latest spending spree!
And if at all possible chip in $100, $70, $50, $30, or whatever you can afford to help Campaign for Liberty’s efforts to stop this spending monstrosity.
The only good thing to say about this package is that it does not pile on as much debt as the Democrat’s $3.4 trillion HEREOS Act.
This is why House Majority Leader Stenny Hoyer (D-MD) rejected the Republican proposal without even taking the time to read it.
Instead, Hoyer called on Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell to begin “negotiations” with Democrats on a spending bill.
With politicians in both parties eager to wrap things up so they can go home and hit the (real or virtual) campaign trail, McConnell is no doubt feeling pressure from his colleagues to cut a deal.
Fortunately, some Senate Republicans, such as Kentucky Senator Rand Paul, are determined to end the spending spree.
These Senators need to know you stand solidly behind their efforts to stop the spending orgy.
And those tempted to keep spending like there is no tomorrow need to be reminded that their pro-liberty constituents expect them to oppose any further out-of-control spending, debt, and deficits.
So please sign your postcard to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and your U.S. Senators. And be sure to forward this email to your pro-liberty family and friends and ask them to sign the postcard as well.
And, if you can, please chip in $100, $70, $50, $30, or whatever you can afford to help Campaign for Liberty’s efforts to stop this spending monstrosity.
In Liberty,
Norm Singleton
President
