On May 31, in a bipartisan vote, the House of Representatives passed The Fiscal Responsibility Act (H.R. 3746), the compromise reached by President Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Congresswoman Shontel Brown (OH-11) voted for the legislation which avoids a catastrophic default, maintains signature Democratic priorities including the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, the CHIPS and Science Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act, fully funds veterans’ medical care, and protects vital programs such as Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act.
