Feenstra Speaks Out Against President Biden’s $7.3-Trillion Tax-and-Spend Budget

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-Hull) issued the following statement on President Biden’s Fiscal Year 2025 budget.

“President Biden’s $7.3-trillion budget proposal continues his administration’s reckless spending policies that fueled 40-year-high inflation and left American families with less money in their pockets. This bloated budget would raise taxes on our families, farmers, and businesses to the tune of $5.5 trillion and balloon our national debt to $45 trillion in a decade. It would also leave our country with a $1.8-trillion budget deficit for Fiscal Year 2025.

Our national debt is increasing by $1 trillion about every 100 days and American families are spending an extra $1,000 every month to keep up with rising prices at the gas station and the grocery store compared to just three years ago. That’s why we cannot continue to print money out of thin air, borrow money that we can’t afford, and spend money that we don’t have. As a strong, fiscal conservative, it is my mission to end wasteful government spending and finally balance our budget to build a stronger and more prosperous economy for our children and grandchildren.”
