Lone Republican Hagerty Slams Brakes On Fast-Tracking Infrastructure

 

Chuck Schumer Just Got Stopped In His Tracks – Lone Republican Hagerty Slams Brakes On Fast-Tracking Infrastructure


What’s Happening:

For months we’ve heard all about this bipartisan infrastructure bill.

D.C. claimed it was a win for America. Until we got a look at it.

Aside from all the pork packed in there by the left and RINOs, it seems to be creeping towards Biden’s socialist dreams.

Donald Trump has repeatedly warned Republicans not to support this toxic bill. Few of them are listening.

Only one Republican opposed this bill. And he slammed the breaks on Schumer’s mad dash to the finish line.

From Reuters:

Republican Senator Bill Hagerty took to the Senate floor to underscore his opposition to expediting the process, saying the legislation would add to the national debt and set the stage for Democrats to move forward with a separate $3.5 trillion spending package which Republicans vehemently oppose…

“While I believe in hard infrastructure, I cannot participate in doing it this way.”

The media keeps claiming this bill is “bipartisan,” but only a handful of senators worked on it.

There was a reason this bill was crafted in secret, without the input of the right committees.

It’s because they didn’t want Americans to know what was in the 2,700-page bill.

Only Sen. Hagerty opposed this bill, preventing it from being quickly passed. He called on the Senate to, you know, actually look at what’s in it.

The hope is so that either Republicans oppose the bill or make significant amendments to it.

We can’t say if either will happen. Numerous Republicans in the Senate approved this bill without even reading it.

What we have seen is troubling, including the government taxing you per mile, breathalyzers in every car, and other Green New Deal attachments.

Not to mention billions for swamp dwellers.

Worse still is the fact that this bill will add to the national debt. Much like Biden’s “stimulus” plan, the government will be paying for things it does not have the money for. How did that work out the last time?

Well, do you like paying more for everything?

Key Takeaways:

  • One Republican in the Senate opposed fast-tracking the infrastructure bill.
  • Hagerty claims this bill is not “hard infrastructure.”
  • The bill contains massive spending and “Green New Deal” ideas.
