WASHINGTON — Today, Heritage Action, a conservative grassroots organization with two million grassroots activists released a statement from Executive Director Jessica Anderson calling on the House of Representatives to vote NO on the so-called “CHIPS” legislation in order to prevent the latest Build Back Broke plan:
At lunchtime today, the Senate passed CHIPS. Before the close of business, Senator Joe Manchin and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced a new, massive reconciliation package that would spend nearly $400 billion on Left-wing priorities and raise over $700 billion in taxes. The timing was no coincidence — this was their plan all along. Manchin and Schumer relied on Republicans to rubber-stamp their ineffective CHIPS bill while fully intending to immediately jam through a monstrous spending package with zero bipartisan agreement.
House Republicans must boycott this charade. They must hold the line and oppose the CHIPS package — it’s now clear that a vote for CHIPS is now a vote for the Build Back Broke agenda. CHIPS was bad enough on its own before, but now, giving it the green light will clear the runway for a bill that raises Americans’ taxes during a recession and that spends massive sums during record-high inflation — the opposite of what working families need.
Congress: stop CHIPS, stop Build Back Broke, and stop inflation.
Background:
- Heritage Action has issued a key vote against the CHIPS legislation in the Senate and House.
- On Tuesday, Heritage Action announced a six-figure ad buy against the BBB package.
