Is your rep working on a House debt bill?
Since March 16, the U.S. government has been operating without authority to borrow more money. The Secretary of the Treasury has been keeping Uncle Sam alive and paying his bills by extraordinary measures, suspending some services and moving money around in abnormal ways.
This will last a few months before it becomes a crisis.
Is your Congressional Representative working to move a debt limit bill through the House? The last few times the Congressional Republicans precipitated a crisis over the debt limit, there were adults in the White House. We can't depend on that now.
