House Budget Committee Minority Leader Brendan Boyle tells the Wall Street Journal that on Wednesday he’ll start collecting signatures for a discharge petition to raise the debt ceiling as a workaround to escape the bullshit Republican demands for spending cuts in order to raise it.
“We only have two weeks to go until we may hit the x-date,” said Boyle, referring to possible default on America’s debts. “We must raise the debt ceiling now and avoid economic catastrophe.”
