U.S. Financial Burden |
|
My highest priority as your Congressman is to protect our prosperity now and in the future by working to keep the U. S. Treasury, and our children and grandchildren, from going deeper into debt. On every vote and on every issue, I always remember our nation’s immense unfunded financial burden. Unfortunately, as you can see on pages 5 and 6 of this important GAO report, this $53 trillion unfunded financial burden grew by 158% since 2000. This is the principle reason I have voted against so many spending initiatives since I was sworn in as your Congressman in January 2001.
