Rep. Granger Opposes Democrats’ Socialist Spending Bill

As Republican Leader of the House Appropriations Committee, I issued the following statement after voting against the Democrats’ socialist reconciliation bill:

After holding hostage any effort to develop a real, bipartisan infrastructure bill, Speaker Pelosi has forced through her socialist tax-and-spend package. This partisan bill includes some of the largest tax increases and spending increases in American history, and that spending goes to the most radical left-wing priorities.

Instead of working together on a targeted infrastructure proposal focused on our Nation’s true needs, Speaker Pelosi preferred to use reconciliation – a little-known budget procedure – to pass her left-wing wish list without any Republican support.
