Susan Collins Joins Growing GOP Chorus Calling For Raising Debt Ceiling

Posted by | January 15, 2013 21:10 | Filed under: Top Stories


WaPo‘s Greg Sargent received an email from Collins’ spokesperson:

Senator Collins recognizes that the debt ceiling is going to have to be raised because the U.S. cannot default on its obligations to pay for spending that has already occurred.

But she is frustrated that the Administration, time and time again, keeps putting off the hard decisions on spending that our country must confront.

Like, maybe spending more on jobs programs that will boost the economy, jump-start revenue, and close the deficit, Senator?
