Yes ! “US Constitution: Congress shall have the power to borrow money.” That is correct. McConnell is not in Congress, he is in the Senate, and this is his SUGGESTION. The House will not pass it, nor will the Senate from what I am hearing. Mitch needs a Conservative primary challenger!

The word ‘Congress’ often has a dual meaning. Many use Congress to refer only to the House of Representatives. But the word Congress has been used since our government was formed to sometimes refer to the two Legislative Branches of our government. I prefer to use just House and Senate whenever I can instead of ‘Congress’ in order to be clear.
