Today, Congressman Bill Huizenga released the following statement after voting against legislation that increases spending and fails to address our nation's budgetary concerns:

“When will Washington wake up and realize that Americans across the country are tired of last minute deals that increase spending and fail to deliver fiscally responsible solutions? With our nation over $18 trillion in debt and climbing, Congress should be working to reduce spending, grow the economy, and get our nation’s fiscal house in order, not breaking budgetary caps to allow for more spending that mortgages our children’s future.

“Perhaps worst of all, this budget agreement eliminates opportunities for the Republican-led congress to reduce spending for the rest of the Obama presidency. The longer we delay making the necessary spending reforms, the more dramatic the impact will eventually be on hardworking families across the nation.”
