Hirono Blasts Republicans in Debt Debate
Congresswoman Mazie Hirono is blasting Republicans for their approach to the debt ceiling, arguing that failing to raise the debt limit would have “real, dire economic consequences.”
In a press statement posted to her website on Friday, Hirono wrote:
“It’s unfathomable that the Republicans have taken us to the brink of default, using programs like Medicare and Social Security, that seniors and middle class families need, as a bargaining chip.”
