WASHINGTON – Heritage Action, a conservative grassroots organization with two million grassroots activists, released a statement from Heritage Action Executive Director Jessica Anderson following the House’s passage of the Limit, Save, Grow Act.
“The House’s passage of the Limit, Save, Grow Act marks an important step in the fight to bring common sense and accountability to the federal budget. Estimated to save $4.8 trillion over the next decade, this historic package caps overall federal spending, limits future government spending, and rolls back programs the Left has weaponized against the American people. House Republicans should be commended for their leadership in drafting and passing this legislation, and now the Senate must take up these efforts.
To avoid a default, greater inflation, and more economic chaos, the Senate must immediately bring up this spending reform package in its current form. Majority Leader Schumer and Senate Democrats must put the financial future and well-being of our country ahead of their own political priorities and aspirations. As the nation’s debt closes in on $33 trillion, this legislation addresses the Left’s spending addiction and its inflationary pressures on every American, while responsibly addressing the debt ceiling. The spending cuts, reforms, and pro-growth policies included in this package reflect the interests of the American people and their desire to rein in reckless spending and bureaucratic overreach. Senators must join the House and send this bill to President Biden’s desk, and the President should sign this common-sense solution.
