'We're going to see battles': Ron Johnson vows to vote 'no' on Trump's debt limit plan

Raw Story  

Sen. Ron Johnson said he will vote against President-elect Donald Trump's plan to eliminate or raise the debt limit. During a Sunday interview on Sunday Morning Futures, Fox News host Mara Bartiromo noted that Trump planned to eliminate or raise the debt limit as part of a large bill that would include funding border security. "President Trump wants eliminating or raising the debt ceiling in this first big package," Bartiromo told Johnson. "But we absolutely need that debt limit, or there's no control over out-of-control government spending," he added.
