Trump Attacks Rand Paul as GOP Budget Bill Faces Senate Defeat
Senator Rand Paul’s opposition to the proposed bill, dubbed a “big growth bill” by its proponents, stems from its inclusion of a debt ceiling increase. Paul has voiced strong disapproval of the substantial debt ceiling hikes proposed in both the House and Senate versions, deeming them unacceptable. He has indicated willingness to support the bill’s remaining provisions if the debt ceiling increase is removed. This stance contrasts sharply with attacks accusing Paul of obstructionism and lacking constructive alternatives. The bill itself faces significant challenges in the Senate and is projected to negatively impact millions of Americans’ healthcare access.
