The title of H.R. 1319, “American Rescue Plan Act 2021, is inaccurate. If it weren’t so damaging to our country the “rescue” title would be almost laughable
The title of H.R. 1319, “American Rescue Plan Act 2021, is inaccurate. If it weren’t so damaging to our country the “rescue” title would be almost laughable. The bill adds $1.9 Trillion to our national debt and the out-of-control spending of the Federal Government. To put that in perspective – our Federal Government spends $1,000,000 every 20 seconds!
