President Biden rips Republicans for not voting to raise the debt limit as deadline to avoid historic default looms two weeks away
In a speech from the White House, Biden put the blame on Republicans for refusing to join with Democrats in raising the debt limit to pay for debts incurred in the past. Congressional Republicans are steadfastly refusing to supply any votes to raise the debt limit, Biden said they should vote on bipartisan basis to pay for bills for which both parties are responsible.
I think the easiest way to do this, and if the Republicans would not use the filibuster, would be to let us vote on what is already in the Senate right now, passed by the house, to raise the debt limit. And we could do that in the next several days," Biden said. Biden said part of the reason Congress needs to raise the debt limit is because of what he described as"reckless tax and spending policies" under the Trump administration.
