On Fox News’ Ingraham Angle on Wednesday, Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) urged House Republicans to reject the semiconductor bill rather than “help Democrats spend $250 billion tomorrow so they can go back and cross their trillion dollars.” dollar tax and an invoice for next week’s expenses.”
said Cotton, [relevant remarks begin around 1:20] “Joe Manchin’s 700-page trillion-dollar tax and spending bill is perhaps the longest suicide note in West Virginia history. What do Democrats propose to do now, while West Virginians and Americans pay $4-$5 a gallon for gas? Spend hundreds of billions of dollars to get the IRS out of hardworking American families. This will only increase inflation and leave people unemployed. And I’d like to point out, Laura, that if you add up to the $250 billion that the Senate has passed today and the House of Representatives will vote on tomorrow, that’s a huge expense. And after this double cross I urge every Republican in the House of Representatives not to support the $250 billion spending bill on semiconductors and other things, most of which will still benefit China because proper steps have not been taken. security or counterintelligence. I urge you not to help Democrats spend $250 billion tomorrow when House Republicans unveil another trillion-dollar tax and spending bill they want to pass next week.”
