Florida Democrats see Republican posturing on debt limit as reckless, warn of threat to Social Security and Medicare

Democrats in the Florida congressional delegation sought to portray Republicans who control the U.S. House as reckless for their posturing on the coming showdown about increasing the federal debt limit. “We can’t be holding our nation and our seniors hostage just to score some political points. And so I’m here in solidarity with our seniors and and with our working families across the state of Florida and with our delegation to call the Republican Party out on their B.S.”
