WASHINGTON D.C. – Today, U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) joined U.S. Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) and Rep. Andy Harris (R-Md.) in sending a letter to Senate Majority Leader John Thune and Speaker of the House of Representatives Mike Johnson, urging them to oppose any Democrat demands that would undermine President Trump and DOGE’s efforts to reduce wasteful federal spending. President Trump is fulfilling his promise to change the broken status quo in Washington that led the nation to a $36 trillion debt crisis, and Republicans must work together to ensure the President can continue to deliver on his mandate and Make America Great Again.

Sens. Johnson and Scott were joined by Senators Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.), Ted Budd (R-N.C.), Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.), Bernie Moreno (R-Ohio), Mike Lee (R-Utah), Eric Schmitt (R-Mo.), and Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.).
Additional co-signers in the House include Reps. Andy Biggs (R-Ariz.), Sheri Biggs (R-S.C.), Andrew Clyde (R-Ga.), Clay Higgins (R-La.), Paul Gosar (R-Ariz.), Brandon Gill (R-Texas), Mark Harris (R-N.C.), Andy Ogles (R-Tenn.), Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.), Barry Moore (R-Ala.), and Ralph Norman (R-S.C.).
It’s shameless individuals like Ron Johnson who have created whatever massive debt of the US by continually passing more and more tax cuts for the wealthy, who take and hoard more and more of our society’s wealth for themselves and then blame government spending for this debt. His hypocrisy knows no end and he is a shame for all of us here in Wisconsin. His bullshit needs to be called out by the press, which has yet to happen, and his hateful policies need to be called out and rejected. He cares for no one other than the oligarchs who are in full control of this country and has clearly pledged his allegiance to them.
