Top Republican on the Ways and Means Committee Rep. Kevin Brady (R-TX) today appeared on Fox Business where he outlined new analysis that shows it is long-past time for Democrats’ endless emergency spending to stop.
In a conversation with Neil Cavuto, Rep. Brady said:
“If we want to help families build their lives and rebuild the U.S. economy for the long term, it’s time for the emergency spending and the endless government checks to end. We really need to focus on job opportunities for these folks.”

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
To help American families rebuild their livelihoods and rebuild our economic recovery, Democrats’ emergency spending must end.
- When Americans needed COVID relief, Congress delivered unprecedented relief.
- The average family of four with both parents out of work will receive at least $109,000 in federal government assistance through September of this year.
Republicans have unveiled a new family leave and child care package that puts American families and Main Street businesses first.
- Democrats’ one-size-fits-all mandate puts Washington first, and permanently lowers American families’ paychecks.
- Republicans’ proposal provides greater flexibility and access to paid family and medical leave and affordable childcare.
Rebuilding America’s infrastructure cannot be paid for on the backs of blue-collar workers and working families.
- Democrats’ crippling tax hikes and runaway spending will sabotage our economic and jobs recovery by slashing paychecks, raising consumer prices, and shipping U.S. jobs overseas.
- Instead, Congress should work to attract private investment to fund America’s infrastructure.
