Technically America won’t run out of money until June. That leaves a little bit of time to negotiate the debt ceiling. The Republican Study Committee has a few suggestions as to what is needed in order for Republicans to agree to raise the debt ceiling. As much as I hate to see the debt ceiling raised again, I like their suggestions.<\/p>\n

The Washington Examiner<\/a> posted an article listing their demands:<\/p>\n

Here is the list:<\/p>\n

The seven demands are quoted below:<\/strong><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n
      \n
    1. Reverse recent increases in overall discretionary spending and institute statutory limitations on annual discretionary spending levels.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    2. Enact a package of inflation-busting reforms to increase domestic energy capacity and reduce associated regulatory and permitting barriers.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    3. Fight inflation and the onset of a Democrat-induced recession by ending the national COVID-19 emergency, increasing workforce participation, advancing targeted, paid-for, pro-growth tax policies, and countering overregulation with common-sense guardrails like the REINS Act.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    4. Ensure an increase in the debt ceiling is accompanied by commensurate spending reductions, including through recissions of the Democrats’ recent excessive spending.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    5. Eliminate wasteful spending on duplicative programs, examine ways to fight waste, fraud and abuse, and transition non-entitlement mandatory programs to the discretionary side of the budget.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    6. Establish a long-term fiscal control focused on reducing spending to restrain the growth of our federal debt as a percentage of the nation’s economy.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    7. Codify procedures to ensure the federal government honors certain critical obligations, such as federal debt payments, national security and veterans, Social Security, and Medicare.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      We need to get back to fiscal sanity. This would be one way to do it.<\/p>\n
