Thomas Massie Campaigns Against Trump's Debt: Expanded Spending Beyond Biden's Budget'

I'd love to stand here and tell the American people, we can cut your taxes and we can increase spending, and everything's going to be just fine. But I can't do that because I'm here to deliver a dose of reality. This bill dramatically increases deficits in the near term, but promises our government will be fiscally responsible five years from now. Where have we heard that before? How do you bind a future Congress to these promises? This bill is a debt bomb ticking.
