Christie: It’s Congress’ Job to Appropriate Money for the Drug Epidemic, So Get Appropriating

‘Let’s see what the president will sign’

EXCERPT:

CHRISTIE: “He talked about changing the Medicaid rules, and said he’s going to, that is going to open up thousands of Medicaid beds across this country for poor people who need drug treatment to get it. That is going to be game changing on the ground in individual states like mine and others. So money is being committed. And now it’s congress’ job. I heard Congresswoman Pelosi say, where is the money? I said, well, I read the constitution. You appropriate, not the president. So get appropriating. Let’s see what the president will sign.”
