Theodore Deutch actually said...

"Put simply, the President's budget undercuts U.S. prestige and influence abroad."

"If partisanship and national security and fiscal concerns aren't motivating the President to slash the foreign affairs budget, the only thing that can remain is ideology."

"When the United States is engaged abroad, it is less likely that we will need to fight costly wars overseas."

"Simply put, Mr. Chairman, the President's budget is an attack on the security of this country."
