• This bill was crafted in secret by a select few lawmakers and now gives everyone 72-hours to pass it.

• Discretionary spending increases by $135 billion (9.2%) above FY 2022 spending levels.

• This only adds to the deficit as America re-enters into a recession again in 2023.

• It is only a matter of days before a bipartisan Congress takes power in 2023, Congress should wait until then.

• The Wall Street Journal calls it The ugliest Omnibus bill ever

• The bill contains a provision that blocks Custom and Border budget from using funds to improve border security.

• Dedicates a Federal building to be named after Nancy Pelosi

• Creates $2 million Nancy Pelosi Fellowship program

• $3 million for bee-friendly highways.
