Chip Roy Pledges to Block Megabill Without More Cuts

Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) told the PBS Newshour he is demanding more spending cuts before he’ll back the Republican megabill winding its way through the House.

Said Roy: “The fact of the matter is, they need to come to the table and show us the math. How are they going to balance the tax cuts that they so often want to dole out, but not do the spending reform we need to do when we’re $37 trillion in debt…”

He added: “So I would say to my Republican colleagues, my moderate friends, you have a hard wall you have got to get through.”
