Debt Ceiling

I understand that Sens. Smith, Warren, Merkley, Markey and Sanders have been circulating a letter amongst their colleagues to collect support for Biden to lift the debt ceiling without any help from House Republicans. I want the Senator to sign on to this letter. It’s extremely clear that the 14th Amendment allows—and in fact requires—the President to raise the debt ceiling in order to meet our obligations. He should do so. The Republicans are negotiating in bad faith. They want to tank the economy. They need to be circumvented, not reasoned with. Thanks.
