Today I voted in support of the bipartisan omnibus 2014 - TopicsExpress



          

Today I voted in support of the bipartisan omnibus 2014 appropriations bill. Given our current fiscal circumstances, I am pleased that we were able to come together and pass a bipartisan spending bill that rolls back disastrous spending cuts that have impacted the lives of everyday workers and families. This bill raises federal worker pay, restores $600 million in funding for disabled veterans and increases critical funding for Head Start programs that many families in my communities rely on. This is good first step towards getting our fiscal house back in order and putting our nation back on a sustainable economic pathway. nytimes/2014/01/16/us/politics/in-defeat-for-tea-party-house-passes-1-1-trillion-spending-bill.html?_r=0
