BACON OPPOSES BUILD BACK BETTER ACT, URGES COLLEAGUES TO DO THE SAME

Washington, D.C. – Rep. Don Bacon (NE-02) today announced on the House floor that he will be voting against H.R. 5376, the Build Back Better Act. 

A full clip of the video can be found here and some key quotes are below:

  • President Biden, Leader Schumer, Speaker Pelosi and Chairman Sanders have made it clear they want to transform America using Reconciliation and the so-called Build Back Better Act.
  •  They’re trying to do this with a 50-50 Senate, a 3-seat majority in the House out of 435 members, and a President that won by just two states. 
  •  Our nation does not desire to be a giant welfare state with ‘cradle to grave’ government oversight controlling our lives.
  •  The authors of this legislation have either misjudged or ignored where the country is at on these issues.
