Arizona Republican Congressman Andy Biggs joins Fox Across America With Jimmy Failla to explain why he’s staunchly opposed to the deal House Speaker Kevin McCarthy reached with President Biden to raise the national debt ceiling.
“Here’s what’s going to happen. They’re claiming, and I’m giving them the benefit of the doubt because this is not accurate, but they’re claiming they’re going to save over ten years, $1.3 trillion. That’s $130 billion a year they claim they’re going to save. That’s about 10 million a month. That’s what they say they’re going to save. But at the same time, every year, they’re saving you $130 billion, guess what? They’re also increasing your national debt by $2 trillion. That’s the program.”
Rep. Biggs also talks about how this deal justifies his opposition to McCarthy being Speaker of the House in the first place. Listen to the podcast to hear what else he had to say!
