Roy Blunt actually said...

"This Committee and Congress did not agree, instead, appropriating a $2 billion increase for a second year in a row."

"I fundamentally disagree with the proposed funding reduction for NIH."

"In my home State of Missouri, that equates to a loss of nearly 1,700 jobs and $292 million in economic activity."

"The budget, of course, proposes cuts that I think that you can rest assured the committee will find unacceptable."
