WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman French Hill (AR-02) issued the following statement after opposing the House rules package, H.Res.6, for the 116th Congress that would make it easier to raise taxes, increase spending, and raise the debt limit with less transparency:

“As the branch of government closest to the American people, the House's priorities should include increasing accountability to the people we serve. Instead, the new Democratic majority has decided to give more power to Nancy Pelosi while making it easier to raise taxes on Arkansas families and small businesses. This is clearly a step in the wrong direction and not in the best interest of the Arkansans who elected me to rein in federal spending and demand more, not less, accountability.”
