VOTE ALERT: House Liberty Caucus statement on Senate amendment to #HConRes71, the budget resolution for fiscal year 2018

This budget never balances, and it adds $5.5 trillion—nearly double the amount added by the House-passed budget—to the national debt over the next decade. In fact, this is the fourth budget in the last seven years that never balances.
Passing a budget that doesn’t address out-of-control spending and adds trillions of dollars to the national debt just to achieve some policy goal—which also could be accomplished with a responsible budget—is an endorsement of a warped worldview where the end justifies the means.
Building a better America for ourselves, our children, and our grandchildren requires Congress to make tough decisions to reduce spending now. Unfortunately, this budget ignores Washington’s spending addiction and places the burden on future generations.
