Original Note:
The proposed GOP bill is primarily designed to limit discretionary spending. Biden’s claim that it would “cut thousands of jobs” is an indication that his admin will choose other areas to spend the allotted money (ex. Green initiatives). Thus, the statement is misleading. https://www.factcheck.org/2023/05/republicans-push-back-on-democratic-claims-of-veterans-health-care-cuts-in-gop-debt-limit-bill/ https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/2811/text https://www.crfb.org/blogs/cbo-scores-limit-save-grow-act
