Washington, DC – Congressman Frank Pallone, Jr. (NJ-06) on May 31 issued the following statement on House passage of the Bipartisan Budget Agreement:
“I supported this bill because it prevents the United States from defaulting on our debt. A default would trigger a devastating economic crisis, drive up costs for American families, and deeply undermine the economic progress we’ve made. The bill shields funding for essential education, health care, and housing programs from the harmful cuts right-wing Republicans passed earlier this year. This agreement also fully funds medical care for veterans and protects 40 million borrowers in President Biden’s student debt relief plan.”
