Sen. Ron Johnson expressed skepticism about President Trump's proposed budget during an interview after receiving it late at night. He and other Republicans are hesitant about raising the debt ceiling, emphasizing the need to revert spending to pre-pandemic levels. Johnson criticized rushing the bill process, warning against the strategy of approving the legislation before understanding its content. He aims for more thorough debate and transparency regarding the budget, reflecting concerns over escalating national debt, now exceeding $30 trillion.
“I just can't accept this is the new normal. So President Trump, his goal in the Senate was to make the big, beautiful bill even better.”
“The last thing I want Republicans doing... we shouldn't take the Nancy Pelosi approach and pass this bill to find out what's in it.”
