"Instead of allowing the legislative process to work with substantive discussions about responsible budgeting, House Democrats released the bill text for this Continuing Resolution fewer than 24 hours prior to the scheduled vote. Speaker Pelosi is attempting to disguise a vote for Democrats' $3.5 trillion socialist spending spree as responsible government funding, but the American people aren't fooled by it. We must rein in Washington's wasteful spending and address our nation's growing national debt; this poor governance by the majority party runs counter to these goals."
