I have serious concerns with this $5,000-check proposal. We are already more than $40 trillion in debt, and I cannot support another massive spending package without a clear way to pay for it.
Tying government checks to the outcome of an election starts to sound like pay-to-play politics. Republicans should earn the support of the American people through good policy, not by promising another round of checks from Washington.
Meanwhile, the Senate has hundreds of House-passed bills waiting for action. Congress should be focused on getting that work done and putting our country on stronger financial footing.
Show me how this is paid for without adding to the debt. Until then, I cannot support it.
Thank you for having principles unlike far too many of your colleagues who fell head over heels for this socialistic proposal by the President.

Did you feel he had high principles when he took out $306k ppp loan that was “forgivable”? I bet you said nothing!
