Hudson Supports Balanced Budget Amendment
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08) released the following statement after the House failed to pass H.J.Res. 2, legislation Rep. Hudson cosponsored proposing a balanced budget amendment to the Constitution of the United States:
“This debate isn’t about our future – it’s about our children’s and grandchildren’s futures,” said Rep. Hudson. “That’s why I’ve fought to cut Washington’s spending and tackle our nation’s debt with bold ideas like the Federal Sunset Act. Today’s legislation is another common sense step that says our federal government can’t spend more than it takes in. I’m extremely disappointed House Democrats followed Nancy Pelosi’s lead and blocked the Balanced Budget Amendment, choosing bureaucrats and big-government over the American people.”
