Rep. Roy issued the following statement Tuesday regarding his vote on H.R 2954:

Today, I voted against H.R. 2954. There are indeed many provisions in the bill that I support, including those that provide much needed flexibilities that will help Americans save for their retirement. However, the bill imposes multiple mandates on small businesses and employs budget gimmicks to hide the real cost of the bill in the short term while increasing the deficit in the long term.

I cannot support legislation that imposes burdens on an American economy that continues to suffer because of tyrannical COVID restrictions and attempts to deceive the public with gimmicks that will ultimately increase our already $30 trillion national debt.
