Today we will vote on 2 budgets: One spends $100 billion MORE and is not offset by cuts. Pure debt. The other budget actually cuts spending by $400 billion dollars! Call your legislators and demand they vote for NO MORE DEBT!
I have no doubt that the authors of this bill genuinely want to protect children, but the bill they have written promises to be a Pandora's box of unintended consequences.
If good intentions created laws, or created good laws, there would be no need for congressional debate.
