WASHINGTON– U.S. Senator John Boozman (R-AR) released the following statement after voting against President Joe Biden’s $4.2 massive spending bill:

“This reckless “budget” is a massive government overreach that will put Washington in charge of our everyday lives all while forcing hardworking Arkansans to foot the bill. On the heels of so-called COVID-19 relief, the Biden administration continues its out-of-control spending spree that will further fuel inflation and make it more difficult for Arkansans to make ends meet.

Ultimately, this bill advances a left-wing agenda that includes amnesty, the Green New Deal and enormous tax hikes that threaten the livelihoods of families, small business and agricultural producers. Arkansans rightfully reject this partisan takeover.”
