House Freedom Caucus members declared their opposition Tuesday to the debt ceiling agreement reached by House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., and President Biden.

Fox News senior congressional correspondent Chad Pergram reports on new developments in the debt limit drama as President Biden and Speaker McCarthy look to seal votes for a debt bill.

Ten members of the caucus told reporters that the deal allows for unlimited borrowing, includes cuts that mostly reflect emergency COVID spending that should be ending anyway, and fails to include measures for border security. House Freedom Caucus Chairman Scott Perry, R-Penn., described the deal as"absolutely and completely unacceptable."

"We will do everything in our power to disrupt it," Perry said."I am focused on defeating this bill."fail in the House "I don’t think he even has a majority of his own conference at this point — we'll find out later today," Roy said."I want to be very clear: not one Republican should vote for this deal."
