Representative Sharice Davids released the following statement after voting to support the bipartisan agreement to avoid default:
“ I voted for a bipartisan agreement to prevent default and save our economy from potential catastrophe. This deal is not perfect, but compromise from both sides was necessary to reach a final agreement. It accomplishes the core priorities I pushed for: we agreed to pay our bills, we avoided cuts to Social Security, Medicare and veterans’ benefits, and we agreed to move onto a bipartisan path to address our nation's budgetary challenges without holding our economy hostage.
“I hope the Senate can pass this quickly and, moving forward, I stand ready to work with the Republican majority to find common ground in lowering our debt. We can balance our budget with pragmatism – not extremism – by eliminating wasteful spending and closing tax loopholes that allow billion-dollar corporations to avoid paying their fair share.”
