Smucker Statement on Senate Advancement of House Budget Resolution

Washington—Rep. Lloyd Smucker (PA-11), Vice Chair of the House Budget Committee and a senior member of the Committee on Ways and Means, released the following statement: 

“The Senate’s passage of the amended House resolution is a critical step forward. However, with $5.8 trillion in costs and only $4 billion required savings in their instructions, I cannot vote for it. We can and must do better. Let’s come together next week to craft a fiscally responsible solution.”
