WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, the U.S. House of Representatives passed by a vote of 216-214 the FY25 Concurrent Budget Resolution as amended by the U.S. Senate. This is the first time a Republican-controlled Congress has passed a budget resolution since 2017. House Budget Committee Chairman Jodey Arrington (R-Texas) released the following statement:
“The fiscal state of the nation is in rapid decline. Our out-of-control deficit spending and unsustainable debt are the greatest threat to our country and our children’s future. No responsible leader canwitness this precipitous decline and defend the status quo.
“President Trump’s America First agenda is not just tax cuts, border and defense funding, deregulation and unleashing American energy production, but it’s also – and the most necessary of these – reining in the runaway spending that threatens to bankrupt the United States of America.
“The Speaker of the House and the Majority Leader of the Senate have committed to reduce spending by at least $1.5 trillion. Consistent with the House-passed budget resolution and President Trump’s call to put our nation on a path to balance, we received assurances from the Speaker that the House will not consider a final reconciliation bill that adds to the national debt.
“Now, more than ever, is the time for Republicans in Congress todemonstrate the courage of their convictions and take the bold action this historic moment requires.
“If we do, we will secure the blessings of liberty to our posterity. If we don’t, we will squander this historic moment, foreclose on our children’s future, and be the first generation of leaders to leave our nation worse off than we found it."
