Andy Harris Recklessly Votes To Default on America’s Bills and Tank U.S. Economy

After his party ballooned the national debt and refused to pay the bill, Andy Harris votes with the rest of the GOP to threaten the full faith and credit of the United States

Once again, Andy Harris showed that he prefers to put millions of American workers, seniors, and small business owners in harm’s way by voting “NO” on the historically bipartisan vote that according to Moody’s Analytics and the Bipartisan Policy Center, would:

• Cost 6 million jobs

• Surge unemployment to 9 percent

• Delay earned benefits like Social Security and Medicare

• Jeopardize our military servicemembers’ paychecks

• Threaten the economic progress President Biden and House Democrats have made in pandemic recovery

DCCC Spokesperson Abel Iraola:

“Andy Harris is showing Marylanders just how fiscally irresponsible he is by playing politics with America’s bills. Under the Trump administration, Republicans blew up the national debt by $8 trillion with their tax cuts for the wealthy and corporate giveaways. Now refusing to pay the bill, Andy Harris is compromising the livelihoods of millions of American workers.”
