Leader Schumer Statement On Moody’s Downgrading The United States’ Credit Rating

New York N.Y. – Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) released the following statement after Moody’s downgraded its credit rating for the United States:

“Moody’s downgrade of the United States’ credit rating should be a wake-up call to Trump and Congressional Republicans to end their reckless pursuit of their deficit-busting tax giveaway. 

“Sadly, I am not holding my breath – today’s GOP simply does not care about deficits or our nation’s fiscal health. Republicans are hell-bent on a multi-trillion tax cut for the ultra-wealthy, leading to nothing but higher prices, more debt, and fewer jobs.”
