Washington, D.C.-Even while losing four Republican votes, House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) managed to squeak through a bill linking a debt limit hike to spending cuts and other changes. H.R. 2811, the Limit, Save, Grow Act passed 217 to 215. "House Republicans just delivered a plan that will address the country's debt crisis," McCarthy and his fellow Republican leaders said in a press release. "The president must come to the table to negotiate." Initial reaction from the White House, which previously announced President Joe Biden would veto the bill if given the chance, did not indicate a change with the House vote. |
