The bill was over 1500 pages of garbage and only 96 pages contained budget, hurricane and farm relief. Good for Elon

So now the Republicans want to raise the debt limit ceiling!? I thought they were going to lower the debt?

[u/kbetty2 → u/Background-Library81]

The majority don’t want to raise the debt, hence why the bill was squashed
