Republican Study Committee Supports President Trump’s Rescissions Package

Washington - The Steering Committee of the Republican Study Committee, today, adopted the following resolution in support of President Donald Trump's rescissions package:

"President Trump's proposal for spending rescissions are a fulfillment of Republican promises to bend the spending curve in the right direction. As the largest conservative caucus in the House of Representatives, the Republican Study Committee fully supports this effort by the Administration to cut nonessential budget items that the American people simply do not want to pay for.

"The House Committee on Appropriations should pass the full rescissions bill immediately so that the House can vote on the measure as soon as possible. Instead of making excuses for why keeping our promises is not possible, Mitch McConnell should make every effort to pass this package."
