Jodey Arrington (R-TX-19) joined The Texan’s reporter Matt Stringer to discuss federal issues facing Congress, including the recent referral of articles of impeachment, the how House Republicans plan to respond to the border crisis amid the expiration of Title 42, and negotiations over the budget as elected officials raised the debt ceiling again last month. “Two out of the three seats at the negotiating table were occupied by Democrats, and we still came out with a bill that would reduce spending for the first time in over a decade,” said Arrington. “That reduced discretionary spending year over year for the next two years. Now that’s not going to save the country from a debt crisis, but it’s stopping the bleeding.” Arrington also weighed in with his thoughts on the Republican presidential primary and the main candidates in the race. Enjoy this content?
