Issues: Government Budget and Spending

Washington -- Today, Congressman Diane Black (R-TN-06), a member of the House Budget Committee, released the following statement upon the news that President Obama will deliver his 2015 budget plan a month late:

"For the fifth time since he entered office, President Obama will once again fail to deliver his budget plan on time. This is another sad reminder of just how unserious this President is about tackling our nation's fiscal challenges, and I hope this does not signal a return to years past where Senate Democrats fail to pass a budget plan at all. My House Republican colleagues and I will continue to lead the fight for fiscal discipline by working to pass a timely budget that addresses out of control Washington spending to secure our nation's finances for future generations."
