Lamborn Statement on President Obama's 2013 Budget

 

“President Barack Obama promised to cut the national deficit in half by the end of his first term. Instead, he has given our nation nothing but trillion dollar deficits every year of his presidency. President Obama is seeking to raise $1.6 trillion in new taxes over ten years. Still, his budget spends more than it takes in. 

“President Obama’s out-of-control spending is ruining our nation. We must take our country back. We can do that by eliminating wasteful spending, reforming entitlement programs, and balancing our budget. It will not be easy, but I know that if we come together as Americans, we can restore American prosperity.”– Doug Lamborn (CO-05)
