Reid Vows to Vote Down Boehner Bill Tonight
Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) said the U.S. Senate will consider House Speaker John Boehner's bill to raise the federal debt ceiling immediately after its anticipated House passage tonight, National Journal reports.
Said Reid: "As soon as the House completes its vote tonight, the Senate will move to take up that bill. It will be defeated. No Democrat will vote for a short-term Band-Aid that would put our economy at risk and put the nation back in this untenable situation a few short months from now."
