White House Warns House Freedom Caucus Proposal Would Be ‘Five-Alarm Fire’ for Americans

(CNSNews.com) – The White House is warning that a proposal by the House Freedom Caucus will be a “five-alarm fire for hard-working Americans.”

The proposal would cut current spending and cap future spending so the debt ceiling won’t have to be raised.

“As I’m sure you’re all aware, and I mentioned this earlier in the week, this week we’re– we use this week to show how the MAGA House Freedom Caucus proposal will be a five-alarm fire for hard-working Americans,” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Wednesday.

“Today we’re revealing how their extreme proposal would ship manufacturing jobs overseas and undermine workers, and here are some examples of how it would do that,” she said.

Reverse investments by Biden and congressional Democrats in American manufacturing. 
Deny 750,000 American workers job training and employment services.
Reduce investigations and targeted inspections so 135,000 workers would lose an average of $1,000 in back wages that they are owed.

“That’s a sharp contrast with the president’s investing in America agenda. That economic strategy is bringing supply chains to America, supporting workers and small businesses, investing in innovation and fueling a manufacturing boom in communities that have been left behind,” the press secretary said.

“The private sector has invested more than $300 billion in manufacturing under President Biden, and the Inflation Reduction Act will create millions of jobs with shovels already hitting the ground. Republicans want to reverse that progress and undermine American manufacturing workers,” Jean-Pierre said.
