U.S. Senator Kelly Ayotte (R-NH) released the following statement tonight after she voted in the Senate to prevent the nation from going off the "fiscal cliff":
"While the president was insistent on raising taxes, I voted to spare as many Americans as possible from getting hit by tax increases. Now it's time for the president and Congress to cut spending and come up with real reforms to get us out of our crippling $16 trillion debt."
