Over 100 House Republicans sign letter promising not to vote to raise debt ceiling, as partisan battle looms
Fox News
The House Republicans letter saying they won't vote to raise the debt limit is almost identical to one Senate Republicans sent earlier this month.
It adds: "In order for this spending to occur, our nation’s debt limit will have to be increased significantly. Because Democrats are responsible for the spending, they need to take responsibility for increasing the debt ceiling." The letter is led by Rep. Kevin Hern, R-Okla., who is the leader of the Republican Study Committee (RSC) Budget and Spending Task Force. It's also joined by Rep. Jim Banks, R-Ind., GOP Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, R-N.Y., and several other high-profile embers like Reps. Dan Crenshaw, R-Texas, and House Freedom Caucus Chairman Andy Biggs, R-Ariz. The total of 103 supporters represents nearly half of the 212 member conference.
