IN CASE YOU MISSED IT… Sen. Rick Scott in Wall Street Journal: Compromise is Good. Democrats Should Try It

March 6, 2023

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Yesterday, Senator Rick Scott responded to a recent editorial in the Wall Street Journal with a letter to the editor urging Republicans to stop caving to Democrats’ radical agenda.

 

In the letter to the editor, Senator Rick Scott wrote, I’ve often said that compromise in Washington means everyone gets what they want, so no one has to make a hard choice. But over the past two years, we’ve seen a different kind of compromise, where one side gets what it wants and the other side gets nothing. It isn’t compromise at all, actually, it’s caving in, and Senate Republican leadership has grossly embraced it as a new norm.

...

 

I bet none of my GOP colleagues campaigned on new gun-control legislation, a reckless $1.7 trillion omnibus bill or raising the debt ceiling without securing any spending reforms. But that’s what Senate Republican leadership gave Democrats last Congress. Big wins for President Biden and Sen. Chuck Schumer, but less freedom and higher inflation for the rest of us.”
