Rep. Mann Fights Against Big Government Spending, Overreach

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Tracey Mann (KS-01) delivered a speech on the Floor of the U.S. House of Representatives outlining his priorities for protecting America’s future. Rep. Mann released the following statement, summarizing his remarks. 

“We need to reduce and reprioritize government spending, secure the southern border, and end the weaponization of the federal government,” said Rep. Mann. "The Biden Administration and Washington Democrats’ spending addiction has created massive inflation and increased our national debt to $33 trillion. $2.4 trillion of that debt has accrued over just the past 365 days. That's more than $76,000 per second. The Biden Administration’s spending is out of touch with what Americans want, and it’s crushing our economy.  

We’re all feeling it – especially in middle America where new, costly regulations are forcing small businesses to close, gas is nearly $4 per gallon, and people’s paychecks are over-taxed. House Republicans have offered commonsense solutions to this problem. We passed the Limit, Save, Grow Act to stop wasting taxpayer dollars, reclaim unspent COVID relief money, and promote pro-growth economic policies. We must stand firm in our commitment to reducing and reprioritizing government spending. Our economic situation is dangerous, unsustainable, and it’s putting our children’s future on the chopping block.  

Meanwhile, a humanitarian crisis continues to rage at our southern border, and the Biden Administration is overseeing and directing an unprecedented weaponization of the federal government. House Republicans are constantly fighting back against overreaching government regulations that are hurting middle America. 

When government grows, freedom shrinks. Americans cannot afford President Biden’s out-of-control spending and should not be forced to bear the burden of his big government overreach. We need to get our fiscal house back in order to protect America’s future.”
