115-hres-564 115 hres 564 Affirming the constitutional power of Congress over the Nation's debts. Economics and Public Finance 2017-10-10 2017-10-10 Referred to the House Committee on Ways and Means. House Rep. Jones, Walter B., Jr. [R-NC-3] NC R J000255 8 Affirms that: (1) the Constitution gives Congress power over the nation's debts; (2) limiting the debt is an essential exercise of this authority; and (3) removing limitations on the debt would inappropriately cede this authority, remove a critical check on future increases in deficit spending and the national debt, and potentially exacerbate the already unsustainable fiscal position of the United States and its national security. 2023-01-11T13:38:19Z
