Republican Reps. Matt Gaetz (FL) and Andy Biggs (AZ) praised McCarthy\u2019s tenure as Speaker so far, despite their previous opposition to his bid for the Speakership.<\/p>\n<h3>Gaetz Gives McCarthy an \u201cA\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019d give him an \u2018A,\u2019\u201d Gaetz told CNN Chief Congressional Correspondent Manu Raju, according to a tweet from the reporter. \u201cI don\u2019t give it lightly.

Tim Burchett (R-TN) and Ken Buck (R-CO) in voting against the \u201cLimit, Save Grow Act of 2023,\u201d which would suspend the debt limit until it rises by $1.5 trillion or until March 31, 2024 \u2014\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.crfb.org\/blogs\/whats-limit-save-grow-act\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">whichever comes first<\/a>\u00a0\u2014 in exchange for a host of spending cuts.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Gaetz\u2019s office said in a statement: \u201cAs our nation is careening into a $32 trillion debt, Congress shouldn\u2019t be making final changes at 2 a.m. \u2014 the morning of the vote \u2014 to legislation raising the debt limit $1.5 trillion.\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Biggs faulted the legislation for not reducing the national debt and failing to be more \u201caggressive\u201d in spending. He said federal spending should at the very least be returned to fiscal year 2019, pre-COVID pandemic levels \u2014 as opposed to 2022 levels outlined in the bill.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cOur national debt is a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/after-calling-china-the-top-geopolitical-threat-biden-lets-beijing-off-the-hook\/\" title=\"After Calling China the Top Geopolitical Threat, Biden Lets Beijing Off The Hook\">top national security threat<\/a>. I have never voted to raise the debt ceiling in my time in Congress \u2013 even while President Trump was in the Oval Office \u2014 and didn\u2019t today for the same reasons,\u201d Biggs said in a\u00a0statement. \u201cWe owe the American people and our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/id-give-him-an-a-mccarthy-earns-high-praise-for-his-tenure-so-far-from-republicans-who-opposed-his-speakership\/\" title=\"\u2018I\u2019d Give Him An \u2018A\u201d: McCarthy Earns High Praise For His Tenure So Far From Republicans Who Opposed His Speakership\">future generations sound<\/a> and responsible fiscal policy.
