Last week, the House of Representatives passed what the President has called “the big, beautiful bill.” I have multiple problems with the bill itself, the process it went through, and we still do not know if it will pass through the Senate, which will take up debate next week.
This party-line vote, midnight maneuvering, and the uncertain passage through the Senate are emblematic of what’s wrong with Washington and why we must emphasize the need for bipartisan cooperation on budget bills like this and so much more.
