WASHINGTON, D.C. – Montana’s Congressman, Denny Rehberg, released the following statement today after voting against Speaker Pelosi’s final budget. The $3.6 trillion proposal paves the way for a nearly half-trillion dollar tax hike, and the largest spending levels in U.S. history other than World War II.

“For thousands of Montana families who live within their means and stick to the family budget each month, Pelosi’s budget would be more aptly described as a child’s Christmas wish-list that includes every fancy new toy with no regard for how much it costs or how it will be paid for. Montanans are rightfully fed up with irresponsible spending, and while some politicians are eager to say they ‘get it’, actions speak louder than words.”
