The fact that we are here today to debate raising America's debt limit is a sign of leadership

fiscal policies. Increasing America's debt weakens us domestically and internationally. Leadership
means that "the buck stops here." Instead, Washington is shifting the burden of bad choices today
onto the backs of our children and grandchildren. America has a debt problem and a failure of
leadership. Americans deserve better.
