Amidst the pressing need for congressional action on Coronavirus and the expiring provisions of the USA FREEDOM Act, an important report by the Government Accountability Office (GAO) seems to have been lost in the noise. The statements of Comptroller General Gene L. Dodaro before the Senate Budget Committee presented a damning view of the nation’s fiscal health. Over the course of the hour-long hearing, Dodaro painted a bleak picture of our “unsustainable long-term fiscal path.”

FreedomWorks is proud to announce that our bill of the month for January 2020 is the Know Debt Resolution, H.Res. 686, introduced by Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas). The Know Debt Resolution would require the Clerk of the House of Representatives to place a real-time display of the national debt -- otherwise known as a debt clock -- in the main hearing rooms of both the House Appropriations Committee and the House Budget Committee.

FreedomWorks is proud to honor Rep. Chip Roy (R-Texas) as the member of the month for June 2019. He serves in the House of Representatives to represent Texas’ 21st Congressional District, which spans to the north and west of Austin, Texas. But in reality, Rep. Roy serves not only to represent his constituents but also to better the lives of all Americans by exposing and fighting against the status quo Washington ways that have put us $22 trillion in debt and left us more burdened by government than our founding fathers ever could have imagined.
