Roger Williams Opposes Budget Deal

October 28, 2015

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congressman Roger Williams (R-Texas) this evening released the following statement after voting against the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 which passed the House by a vote of 266 to 167:

"Four years ago Congress passed a budget to rein in Washington's out of control spending, and this recent deal violates those caps while raising the debt ceiling simultaneously. America's financial charades need to be put in order. Despite President Obama's favorite claim of shrinking deficits, we are increasing the balance on our national credit card while at the same time over-drafting our checking account again and again."
