SENATE ADDICTED TO SPENDING - RID CONGRESS OF HABITUAL SPENDERS

DC Spending Addiction: More Proof

CONSERVATIVES, Last night, a majority of U.S. Senators voted to give FEMA an extra $1 billion the agency said it didn't need. We're nearly $15 trillion in debt and public confidence in Congress is near record lows. No wonder why: 54 Senators voted to give FEMA an unnecessary $1 billion and add an additional $1 billion to our debt. Fortunately, the measure failed the necessary 60 vote threshold and the funding was removed from the bill that eventually passed. >>Learn more: did your Senators vote for reckless, unnecessary spending? Our country is in a fiscal crisis and these 54 Senators voted to blindly allocate money that isn't needed. These Senators proved the problem with Washington today: an addiction to spending. >> Join the conversation about what you can do to stop DC's spending addiction. We need conservatives like you to continue fighting for responsible government and fiscal conservatism. Together we can make a difference. Sincerely, Michael A.
