House Speaker McCarthy sent a letter to President Biden after the President and his team have been missing in action on the debt ceiling discussions, putting our already fragile economy in jeopardy by failing to negotiate. House Republicans are united in our view that the best way to reduce the national debt is to limit spending, save taxpayer money, and grow the economy. 
 

STEPS WE CAN TAKE TO ACHIEVE TRILLIONS OF DOLLARS IN SAVINGS AND ECONOMIC GROWTH (Courtesy of Speaker Kevin McCarthy):

• Reducing excessive non-defense government spending to pre-inflationary levels and limiting out-year growth, similar to what Senator Joe Manchin (D-WV) has proposed; 
• Reclaiming unspent COVID funds that have sat dormant for over two years;
• Strengthening work requirements for those without dependents who can work, as was enacted under President Bill Clinton and which Biden voted for as a United States Senator; and
• Policies to grow our economy and keep Americans safe, including measures to lower energy costs, make America energy independent, and secure our border from the flow of deadly fentanyl that is killing 300 Americans per day.

Taken together, these policies would help address the number one issue facing Americans today: High inflation brought on by extreme Democrats' reckless government spending.
 

MAKE NO MISTAKE: With each passing day, Biden is putting our already fragile economy in jeopardy by refusing to negotiate any meaningful changes to out-of-control government spending alongside an increase of the debt limit.
