Rep. Brady slams for creating an 'economic and political crisis' with excess spending
Fox News
Rep. Kevin Brady, R-Texas, argued on “Sunday Mornings Futures” that Democrats are creating an “economic and political crisis.”
The ranking member of the House Ways and Means Committee told host Maria Baritromo that he believes Democrats are "more interested in playing political games with the debt ceiling" than "actually passing it and raising it."
The Senate is expected to vote as soon as Monday on a House-passed bill that will keep the government funded through early December and raise the $28 trillion debt ceiling.
But the bill is almost certainly doomed in the upper chamber, where all but four Republican senators have promised to vote against it due to the inclusion of the debt limit. Democrats would need to secure the support of at least 10 GOP lawmakers to overcome a filibuster.
