Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX) introduced a resolution into the U.S. House of Representatives on Tuesday to place real-time debt clocks in the main meeting rooms of the House Budget Committee and House Appropriations Committee.
“The fruits of our nation’s fiscal irresponsibility was on full display this month as we topped $23 trillion in debt,” Roy wrote in a press release. “In response to such a sad achievement, I introduced a simple piece of legislation titled the ‘Know Debt Resolution’ … it is quite clear to me that if Congress ever intends to eliminate the national debt, we need to at least know what the national debt is.”
