Multiple Republican representatives, including Rep. Andy Biggs and Rep. Mary Miller, express strong opposition to the omnibus spending bill, citing concerns over national debt, wasteful spending, and lack of policy wins. The bill, part one of a $1.65 trillion omnibus, passed despite significant Republican dissent, with Rep. Clyde noting more Democrat votes. Earmarks and funding for controversial issues like CRT and Wuhan Lab are criticized, with Rep. Brecheen highlighting excessive earmarks totaling over $12 billion.
Those voting in favor of $60 billion in more discretionary spending with a record deficit and $34 trillion in debt are complicit in the very endless Washington spending that is destroying our economy. Congress has a duty to spend taxpayer money responsibly. Do these examples…
I voted no on H.Res. 1061, the minibus spending package. In typical Washington D.C. style, this 1,050-page bill does nothing to address American border security, and steers $467 billion supporting woke policies.
I am more than disappointed in the 6,000+ earmarks totaling more than $12 billion that were a part of the 6 minibus appropriation bills that passed the House yesterday. There were 605 pages in the bill devoted to earmarks. The late Senator Tom Coburn often spoke of the effect… https://t.co/rhg1U1nuBO
42 House members who voted against the spending package — 40 Rs and 2 Ds — have $946.5 million in earmarked money in the measure Includes $50m sought by Gaetz, $20m by Boebert, $9.3m by MTG, per @jackfitzdc https://t.co/baleO0EZMU
Disappointing that 132 House Republicans voted for the #SchumerMinibus. A short-term spending bill (funding through September 30th) would save $130 billion. And attaching HR2 would force Biden to secure our border. This bill does neither, and contains 6,000+ earmarks. https://t.co/HCDJWaQAYX
Today, I voted against the first half of the $1.65 trillion omnibus spending bill. This bill blows through the bipartisan spending caps signed into law less than a year ago and is loaded with 605 pages of earmarks totaling more than $12 billion. There’s a reason more Democrats…
There are countless reasons to vote against Schumer’s omnibus that continues to recklessly spend money liberally and is filled with earmarks for pet projects. Americans deserve better. They demand massive cuts to Washington’s spending, not business as usual. https://t.co/Xgo2bxt7de
This bloated spending bill: ❌Allows Pride flags to fly over federal buildings ❌Wastes taxpayer money on CRT ❌Allows federal funds to continue flowing to the Wuhan Lab I voted NO on this wasteful government spending bill. Read more here: https://t.co/rHZFwmeqzr
I voted NO on the first half of the Swamp’s omnibus. It ultimately passed with MORE DEMOCRAT votes than Republican votes—which, unfortunately, has been the norm for every “must pass” bill in our *Republican* majority. Disappointing is an understatement—but our fight isn’t over.…
I voted NO on the omnibus spending bill because we are $34 trillion in debt, the US dollar is becoming worthless, and our country is being INVADED, but this spending bill fails to seriously cut wasteful DC spending or force Biden to the table to secure the border. https://t.co/YuwYiktORl
Washington’s spending addiction is why our nation is currently $34 trillion in debt. Our appropriations process is fundamentally broken, and the bill before us today is just more of the same bloated spending that we simply cannot afford. South Carolinians do not want more of the…
The Johnson-Schumer omnibus bill continues to fund the destruction of our great nation. No policy wins. No sizable spending cuts. No real wins. I'm a total NO!
After five months of terrible continuing resolutions and promises of better outcomes with individual spending bills, Congress turned its back on the American people and passed part one of a $1.65 trillion omnibus spending bill. I voted NO.
