House Passes Luetkemeyer Backed Bill to Hold Congress Accountable on Debt
In an effort to protect millions of Americans in the event the government reaches and does not raise the debt ceiling, the House today passed legislation, co-sponsored by U.S. Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (MO-3), directing the U.S. Treasury to pay principal and interest due on debt held by the public before making any other payments.
