Scalise: We’ve Got to Start ‘Getting Control Over Spending’ and Trump Has That as a Top Priority Too
This is a modal window.
RUSH EXCERPT:
SCALISE: "Good news on that on both fronts was yes and the two are tied together. some people initially were worried, the current policy baseline would be used to avoid cuts. we cannot avoid cuts, we’ve got to start getting control over spending and Trump has that is a top priority too. making sure, to current policy as baseline, allows you to go to permanency instead of 10 year renewal and the renewal will be great, a permanent tax code even better. we want the Senate to add them in. the parliamentarian, the one who makes those decisions. it is a Senate issue, not a house issue. let’s get it added in. still do the real savings so we get that economic bounce and lower deficit at the same time. all that is being worked on together. when you see this bill come back and start the reconciliation process it will be full steam ahead."
