In Weekly Radio Address, Wilson Discusses Spending and Liberal Leadership’s Failure to Propose a Budget

June 11, 2010
Congressman Joe Wilson (SC-02) today released his weekly radio address highlighting reckless spending and liberal leadership's failure to produce a budget. Audio for distribution can be downloaded here.

On reckless spending:

"In just the first eight months on this fiscal year, the federal government racked up $941 billion in deficit spending. This is on track to an annual deficit approaching last year's record at $1.4 trillion. This cycle of borrowing and spending must stop. America's economy will not start humming again unless we get our fiscal house in order.

On lack of a budget:

"By failing to govern and pass a fiscally responsible budget, liberal lawmakers are threatening job creation and are exploding spending and deficits. We aren't expecting a Strasburg-like performance from Democrats' budget attempts, but they could at least get in the game."
