Debt Limit Increase
August 02, 2011
The vote was on whether to raise the debt limit by $2.4 trillion. The bill sets up a framework that allows the debt to grow by $7 trillion over the next decade, creates a 12-member "Super Committee" that has the power to fast-track tax increases, puts our AAA bond rating at risk, and never balances the budget. The conservative vote was Nay.
PLEASE HELP US ELECT TRUE CONSERVATIVES WHO WILL VOTE TO STOP THE DEBT AND BALANCE THE BUDGET.
