Fellow American,

I wanted to take a moment and let you know that House Democrats, with the smallest majority in modern history, have just passed the most expensive legislation in the history of the United States.

This budget – written and championed by avowed socialist Bernie Sanders – will cost the American people $68 TRILLION more in taxes and will raise costs on American families earning under $400,000. It's a dangerous path to socialism and I won't stand for it.

At a time when unchecked spending is causing runaway inflation, Democrats just unanimously passed legislation that would add $17 TRILLION to the national debt.

One thing is for sure – I don't want Democrats doing my budget.

They have no idea what the average family spends in a year to keep the lights on, the roof over their heads, and food stocked. They only care about spending your tax dollars and increasing government dependency.

All that Democrats know how to do is tax hardworking American families and spend like they have a blank check. It's time to stop this spending spree and elect conservatives who know the struggles of everyday Americans – and care about the safety and security of our children and grandchildren.
