Washington, D.C – The Democrats are once again foisting some seriously fuzzy math on the American people. As the country reels from a spike in inflation, due in large part to the Democrats’ reckless new spending, Chuck Schumer is surrendering to Bernie Sanders’ demands for a supposed $3.5 Trillion tax-and-spend bill. Before you dig into the numbers, there is one huge problem: The bill actually costs over $5 trillion, almost as much as Sanders’ original proposal.
Last night, socialist Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who Leader Schumer is trying to avoid seeing in a primary, called the proposed socialist spending spree a “victory.”
As each day passes, with Democrats trying to kill any bipartisan work on infrastructure, it is becoming more and more clear that Chuck Schumer will force-feed the Senate a socialist wish-list to save his job. Therefore, one must wonder where Maggie Hassan, the most vulnerable Senate Democrat, who is working overtime to change her image into a “moderate,” stands on such recklessness. As we asked yesterday, will Hassan support the reckless, hyper-partisan $3.5 trillion (actually $5 trillion) socialist spending bill??
Statement from NRSC Spokesman T.W. Arrighi: “It now looks like Bernie Sanders is going to get his entire $5 trillion socialist wish list handed to him on a silver platter, and no Democrat is willing to say ‘no.’ Record tax hikes, record spending, record inflation clearly lay ahead should this bill pass. Yet Democrat Senators like Maggie Hassan haven’t said a word. It’s hard to imagine how any so-called ‘moderate’ could come close to supporting such legislation, but the truth is Maggie Hassan is far from a moderate.”
