On the recordJune 12, 2019
The Democrat majority promised the American people before the last election that they would produce a budget, and the Democrat majority has failed the very basic first step of leadership in failing to do so. Without putting a budget on the floor of this House of Representatives and showing the American people the priorities of the Democrat majority, we can only assume that the Democrat majority has no interest in balancing the budget. That being the case, my amendment is a very basic first step toward doing just that. My daughters are 9, 7, and 6 years old, and they are the ones who will be holding the bag for the lack of leadership in this Congress, who refuses to address the issue that is staring us in the face, a $22 trillion national debt. Madam Chair, I reserve the balance of my time.
