House GOP debt ceiling plan, set for Tuesday vote, will dismantle Green New Deal, lower energy costs, former ambassador

Former Ambassador Carla Sands discussing Speaker Kevin McCarthy and House Republicans push to pass comprehensive legislation this week, that looks to “to raise the debt limit, but they're going to restrict spending to 1% per year increase.” They will do this through, putting “work requirements for food stamps, so if you want to have SNAP, you have to work. HR-1 is [also included in this plan], as well as Lower Energy Costs Act.” Sands says that this would also take “out that green New Deal waste, that Biden has stuffed into all of his bills that have passed over the last about two years, and it takes that green New Deal waste out, it also takes this the cheating, letting off people that borrowed money for their student loans, while they make the person that bought a truck for their work, pay their loan back it, that's a cheat and it takes those those that cheat on student loans out of of their appropriations. So we want to support Kevin McCarthy and make sure that all the Republicans vote for this bill, it's going to take 218 votes, we need to make sure that that gets support, it's essential that this past is to stop the the I will just say green New Deal madness that the Biden administration is pushing forward.”
