House GOP gets ahead of Biden State of the Union with debt ceiling calls, Chinese spy flights rebuke
Fox News
House GOP lawmakers went after President Biden on the debt ceiling, and his handling of the Chinese surveillance balloon and the border crisis ahead of the State of the Union address Tuesday.
Anticipating Biden’s argument that catastrophic economic consequences will come if Congress does not raise the debt limit by early June, McCarthy urged the president to help Congress move toward a balanced budget to ensure the national debt doesn’t threaten future generations of Americans. Biden asked for a "clean" debt ceiling hike last week without any other stipulations, according to The Hill.

"The greatest threat to our future is our national debt," McCarthy said Monday. "We are already changing the behavior of this government. The runaway spending in the last few years – it’s over."
