They are willing to wreak catastrophe to get what they want.
Over the summer, President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy reached a bipartisan spending agreement. Neither side thought it was perfect, but they agreed it was a fair compromise — one that would keep the federal government open for business.
Both parties voted for it. McCarthy, R-Calif., and his leadership team even called it “historic.” But before the ink was dry, heWhy? Because McCarthy has handed the speaker’s gavel over to the most extreme members of his party.These “Anti-Freedom Caucus” extremists are using their control over McCarthy to advance an agenda of chaos and MAGA ideology.
Their only vision is one of greater conflict — a future that enriches the ultra-wealthy at the expense of working families, empowers extremists at the expense of our democratic institutions and satisfies anti-abortion zealots at the expense of our freedom. The last time Republicans forced a full government shutdown, they eliminated $20 billion from the economy.
Let’s be clear about what this MAGA Majority has demanded in exchange for doing its job and funding the government:Impose a nationwide abortion ban — starting with our service members.Slash our seniors’ Social Security and Medicare benefits.That’s their ransom note, and they are willing to wreak catastrophe to get what they want.
