Opinion piece full of pseudo-accounting whose proposed solution is far-right austerity:

First, Congress should pass the bipartisan H.R. 3289 — Fiscal Commission Act, sponsored by Rep. Bill Huizenga (R-MI), Rep. Scott Peters (D-CA), and 41 co-sponsors. Such a commission would force a public reckoning with the facts, the trade-offs, and the hard choices that restoring fiscal health requires.

Second, Congress should call an Article V Convention limited to proposing a fiscal responsibility amendment to the U.S. Constitution. H.Con.Res. 15, sponsored by Rep. Jodey Arrington (R-TX), would do exactly that.

This opinion is calling for writing a Texas Republican’s definition of “fiscal responsibility” – a man who cited Thessalonians 3:10 for cutting SNAP benefits – into the US Constitution.
