House Budget Bill Battle & NY’s Wildcat Strike | 2.26.25
If the Republican plan passes under the rosiest assumptions, which aren't even true, we're going to add $328 billion to the deficit this year. We're going to add $295 billion to the deficit the year after that, and $242 billion to the deficit after that, under the rosiest assumptions. Why would I vote for that?

Yeah, they convinced me. I was at lean no until this meeting. Not a no. This is a no. Why? They're talking points. Look, these are not something I made up. This is the leadership's talking points. It adds $328 billion to the deficit. It adds $295 billion to the deficit the year after that. Yeah.

Congressman Tom Suozzi on Republican Budget Chaos
If the only way they get to this magic thing where it's not gonna kill our country is five years from now, they imagine that 2.5% growth accumulates. And that even right here, they say they're gonna cap discretionary spending. You think we're gonna cap discretionary spending and then spend at the rate of inflation after that? That has never happened. So their assumptions are wrong.

They convinced me in there. I'm a no. Look, their own numbers, if the Republican plan passes under the rosiest assumptions, which aren't even true, we're going to add $328 billion to the deficit this year. We're going to add $295 billion to the deficit the year after that, and $242 billion to the deficit after that, under the rosiest assumptions. Why would I vote for that?
