US House Speaker considers Republican-only debt-ceiling increase as Biden remains unmovable
Summary by NewsWall Mar 30 23
- "We should not be negotiating on the debt ceiling."
- According to a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted March 14-20, nearly three-quarters of Americans want Republicans and Democrats to reach an agreement on the debt ceiling.
- Almost 60% of respondents said the debt ceiling is an excellent opportunity to press the difficult issues of spending cuts or tax increases.
- Representative Kevin Hern, chairman of the conservative Republican Study Committee, told reporters that Republicans might accept a debt-ceiling agreement that includes work requirements on social programs rather than spending cuts to control inflation.
