Senator Ayotte Comments on CBO Report
Statement
Issues: Government Budget and Spending
U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH), a member of the Senate Budget Committee, released the following statement regarding the Congressional Budget Office's budget report issued today:
"CBO's projection is the latest warning that we need bold action to stabilize our debt crisis. With four straight years of $1 trillion-plus budget shortfalls, running the highest deficits since World War II, Congress can't keep punting on the tough decisions. Republicans and Democrats got us into this mess, and it will take both parties to end Congress' addiction to deficit spending. That starts with performing the simple task of passing a budget - something the Democrat-controlled Senate hasn't done in more than 1,000 days."
