Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) vowed to fix what he called a “disaster” over defense spending in the debt ceiling deal agreed by President Joe Biden and House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.).

“I will use all powers available to me in the Senate to have amendment votes to undo this catastrophe for defense,” Graham wrote on Twitter on Monday. “I support raising the debt limit for 90 days to give us a chance to correct this disaster for defense.”
