(Kevin Dietsch\/Getty Images)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<h5>OAN Newsroom<br \/>UPDATED 1:41 PM PT \u2013 Wednesday, August 11, 2021<\/h5>\n<p>The Senate has agreed to move forward with the blueprint for the $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation package. The motion passed in a slim 50 to 49 vote early on Wednesday, after the Senate passed a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>However, Republicans have sounded the alarm on the left\u2019s unbalanced spending and their work to push their agenda while they still hold the majority. In addition, Democrat Sens. Joe Manchin (W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (Ariz.) have continued to warn their own party of the grave consequences such unbridled spending will ultimately have.<\/p>\n<p>The resolution includes everything from making way for the Green New Deal, which GOP lawmakers have warned would crush the fossil fuel industry, eliminate millions of American jobs and America\u2019s energy independence, forcing the U.S. to rely on foreign adversaries.<\/p>\n<p>Republicans also cautioned taxes on job creators will skyrocket costing jobs and wages, ultimately pushing jobs offshore. The budget would also accommodate Democrats\u2019 push toward socialized health care with conservative lawmakers suggesting it could move America toward a more European socialist model of health care, leading to longer wait times, fewer choices and lower quality care.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">The American people need to listen carefully to what\u2019s in this $3.5 trillion reckless tax-and-spend spree\u2014and try not to let your jaw hit the floor in the process. Just listen to what Democrats are promising to stuff into this reconciliation bill: <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/GQT3RpgpKq\">pic.twitter.com\/GQT3RpgpKq<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Senator Bill Hagerty (@SenatorHagerty) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SenatorHagerty\/status\/1425279939952234498?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">August 11, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Furthermore, Republicans voiced concerns about the left\u2019s motivations, pointing to unions that would potentially benefit from the plan, which are those that fund Democrat campaigns. Additionally, they have warned against the package\u2019s high spending, saying it may be convenient for today\u2019s politicians, but could prove cumbersome for future generations.<\/p>\n<p>Moving forward, the House is expected to take up a vote on the issue the week of Aug. 23, and Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) has set a Sept. 15 deadline for committees to finish writing portions of the budget resolution.<\/p>\n<h4>MORE NEWS: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.oann.com\/gop-lawmakers-criticize-dems-tax-and-spending-policies\/\">GOP Lawmakers Criticize Dems Tax And Spending Policies<\/a><\/h4>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WASHINGTON, DC \u2013 AUGUST 11: Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) walks to his office after speaking on the passage of the bipartisan infrastructure bill at the U.S. Capitol on &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":2315279,"comment_status":"close","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-634248","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634248","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=634248"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/634248\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2315279"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=634248"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=634248"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=634248"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
