Fiscal Responsibility
Senator Warner was elected in part to bring a business-like approach to government, just like he did as Governor of Virginia. As a member of the Budget Committee, Senator Warner is focused on reducing the growing budget deficit and reducing waste through reforms in government programs and spending. He devoted his maiden floor speech on fiscal responsibility, and has spent much of his time on the Budget Committee working to increase performance measurements to ensure that taxpayer dollars are spent wisely. In October 2009, he was tapped to chair the Budget Committee's Task Force on Government Performance, which will examine the federal government's management framework and identify opportunities to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of federal programs and services.
