During Trump's one term in office, the nat'l debt increased by nearly 36%. When Republicans needed to suspend the debt ceiling to keep the economy running, Dems stood with them. Now instead of doing the same, they've chosen to risk the full faith & credit of the United States. https://t.co/wuJtJ2mqHe — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s be absolutely clear—suspending the debt ceiling is about paying for past debts already incurred. It has nothing to do with new spending. This is about paying for what we owe and avoiding economic catastrophe. — PolitiTweet.org

Suspending the debt ceiling is about one thing: paying Donald Trump’s bills. He racked up more debt than any other President in history in just four years. And now his party refuses to acknowledge that debt and the fact that we have to pay it back. It’s a shameless stunt. https://t.co/C0RkxeTXRp — PolitiTweet.org

This is not the first time US Steel has spilled waste into Lake Michigan. These incidents are unacceptable and doing great damage to this precious resource. Illinoisans who enjoy everything the Lake has to offer deserve better from US Steel. https://t.co/VjpiXkMDVq — PolitiTweet.org

Right now, our top priority should be keeping the nation’s economy on the path to recovery. Instead, Republicans are playing reckless political games with the economy and the full faith and credit of the United States by refusing to pay the bill that Donald Trump helped rack up. — PolitiTweet.org

The handling of S.B. 8 by SCOTUS’s conservative majority was a dog-whistle to those who have waged a long campaign to undermine reproductive and other constitutional rights. This is a five-alarm fire for due process, and for the future of civil rights. My latest for @TheNLJ: — PolitiTweet.org

Let’s be clear—raising the debt ceiling has nothing to do with future spending. It’s about paying what we already owe and averting economic calamity. Anyone who says otherwise is not telling the truth. — PolitiTweet.org
