Congressmen Mo Brooks and Barry Moore have announced they will vote “No” on H.R. 5376, the Build Back Better bill.
In a press release, Brooks argued that Build Back Better bill was a “monstrosity” that raises “taxes, increases welfare, grants amnesty for illegal aliens, and authorizes a federal takeover of local public schools.”
He also argued that the bill has been pushed through the House without proper review.
Congressman Brooks said, “Socialist Democrats display their true colors and arrogance by pushing a massive unpaid-for multi-trillion-dollar spending bill that raises taxes, increases welfare, grants amnesty for illegal aliens, and authorizes even more federal takeover of local public schools, among other terrible policy provisions. The only thing Socialist Democrats are for is spend, spend, spend— grow government, takeover local control, order the American people around— until a formerly-great America is broke and discarded to the dustbin of history.”
Brooks continued, “Inflation is at a 30-year high, and Socialist Democrats care not one twit. They ignore the economic reality of massive government spending and welfare give-a-way programs that encourage welfare recipients to mooch off the hard work of others and cause inflation that ravages working American citizen pocketbooks. The economics are simple: when you print money out of thin air that money becomes less valuable. Socialist Democrats are ignorant and clueless of basic economics.”
Congressman Moore argued that the bill will threaten America’s prosperity.
Moore stated in a press release, “The most serious threat to our representative democracy is the betrayal of the values that empowered us to become the freest, most prosperous nation in the history of the free world. The dangerous bill advanced by House Democrats today would bring our nation alarmingly closer to the repressive socialist utopia envisioned by power hungry globalists who abhor American exceptionalism and the rights of all individuals. This transformative legislation seeks to elevate government to the all-powerful role of provider of our livelihoods and our liberties, not the protector of our God-given rights that our brilliant Founders created. This battle now goes to the Senate, and I pray that freedom and reason prevail.”
