Hi John, Yesterday, my colleague Kurt Couchman highlighted a critical issue — our national debt ballooning to nearly $36 trillion. Today, let’s explore how we can fix our economy and how AFP can help amplify your voice. The Comprehensive Congressional Budget Act (CCBA) could reshape how Congress approaches spending by empowering committees to make smarter decisions and manage resources responsibly. Here’s what the CCBA could mean for you: - Annual program review: Every year, each committee on Capitol Hill would look for ways to cut waste and improve value within their programs.
- A platform for bipartisan solutions: The CCBA gives Congress yearly opportunities to propose real solutions, helping break the gridlock and focus on issues that matter to you.
- Greater oversight on spending: By keeping a closer watch on executive agencies, Congress can help ensure that our tax dollars are managed efficiently and transparently.
If you’re frustrated with how Congress is wasting your hard-earned tax dollars, you’re not alone. For decades, we’ve watched massive, last-minute spending bills balloon our debt without addressing the real challenges facing our country. But it doesn’t need to be this way. Your voice can drive Congress toward fiscal responsibility. 2025 is around the corner. This is our chance to finally shift the tide on government spending. Sign the spending reform pledge, and let’s make fiscal responsibility a reality in 2025. |
