Congressman Bruce Westerman (R-Hot Springs) issued the following statement following questioning Office of Management and Budget Director Shaun Donovan on Wednesday (February 4):
"Director Donovan's appearance again demonstrates that the president's budget is not based in reality. The simple fact is the president's budget continues adding levels of debt never before seen under an American president and I, for one, will not stand for it. My colleagues and I on the House Budget Committee are working on realistic and balanced approach to the budget, which will force the president to stop spending money our country does not have, racking up bills my four children and future grandchildren will have to repay."
