Hakeem Jeffries: Reckless Republican Spending Bill Will Hurt the American People

EXCERPT:

JEFFRIES: "Well, House Democrats were strongly opposed to this reckless Republican spending bill because it would hurt the American people, hurt seniors, hurt families, hurt veterans, and enact cuts that we believed were not in the best interest of the American people. We opposed it from the very beginning all the way through the Senate vote, and we'll continue to impose these types of cuts to the extent that they are put forward by Republicans. The Senate position was the Senate position. There were many Senate Democrats that shared our view with respect to this reckless Republican spending bill, and we're all going to have to come together to move forward to oppose the Republican budget that they are trying to jam down the throats of the American people over the next few weeks."
