With #Republicans already pressing for deep #SpendingCuts & #SocialPolicy reqs that have alienated #Democrats, they will likely have only 4 votes in their own party to spare, meaning just a handful of defections could sink the bills.

I need my friends to WRITE TO YOUR US REPRESENATIVE! Tell them to 1: write a clean bill to raise the debt ceiling (w/o #SpendingCuts), 2: initiate a #DischargePetition to force a vote (this will require both #Democrats & #Republicans).

#US gov could #default “as early as June 1” unless #Congress raises or suspends #DebtCeiling, acc/to #Treasury, which implored #lawmakers again to act to avert a fiscal #crisis.
The new est followed <1wk after #House #Republicans delivered on their pledge to try to leverage the looming deadline to secure #SpendingCuts, touching off a political stalemate that could tip the #economy into #recession.

House Speaker #KevinMcCarthy stated today that #JoeBiden & Senate Majority Leader #ChuckSchumer were "playing #politics" w/ the "#debtcrisis"...
BUT THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT HE & #REPUBLICANS ARE DOING!!!
The #debtceiling is NOT a time to decide on #spendingcuts! The #Congress ALREADY passed the #FederalBudget & decided how much to fund each program. Now we need to pay.
#McCarthy & #GOP are holding the nation's #economy as hostage to push his agenda to cut social programs.

I’ll share some thoughts (from others, much smarter than me) on why it doesn’t have to be this way, but for now, I am remembering this
More than 330,000 excess deaths in Britain can be linked to Tory-led #austerity policies that began in 2010
Never again 💔
