What a member of the Wisconsin congressional delegation says about two major federal spending bills depends on party membership.
The U-S Senate has approved a $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill and a reconciliation bill will cost $3.5 trillion.
Both measures are part of President Biden’s Build Back Better plan.
Wisconsin Sixth District Republican Congressman Glenn Grothman sees reckless spending, while Wisconsin U-S Senator Tammy Baldwin says the reconciliation bill will be funded by taxing the rich.
Wisconsin Eighth District Republican Congressman Mike Gallagher thinks passage of the bigger bill would be unwise.
Members of the House of Representatives are on a break for another two weeks.
