TMC Episode 44 - The budget bill or what the heck just happened?
Send us a text
February 25th was a rough day, but it really shouldn't have been. Learn why the House Budget Bill means about as much as a wooden nickel. Also, learn what the bill is, and what it isn't. History provides amazing perspective sometimes - this is one of those times.
Show Notes:
Budget law and history piece from PEW research: Government shutdown? Congress’ history of spending bill delays
A vote narrative on the drama: House Republicans narrowly advance plan for Trump's agenda
Individual budget items I researched: Focus on Function 450 – Community and Regional Development | House Budget Committee Democrats & Focus on Function 600 – Income Security | House Budget Committee Democrats
119th Congressional budget: https://www.congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-concurrent-resolution/14/text
118th Congressional budget: https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-concurrent-resolution/117/text
