Judd Gregg: “I was correct then, and that is why we put pay-go into this resolution. The budget resolution does have pay-go in it…”

“I was correct then, and that is why we put pay-go into this resolution. The budget resolution does have pay-go in it, and it is the appropriate approach to pay-go because it recognizes there is a difference between tax relief and raising spending. The other side of the aisle has always looked on people's taxes as their money. We don't look at it that way on this side of the aisle. We look at it as the people's money, and they should be able to keep it. We should not have a rule that arbitrarily takes it from them. For that reason, I oppose the amendment. I make a point of order that the pending amendment is not germane before the Senate, and I raise a point of order under section 305 of the Budget Act.”
