Hinson: Government Spending Process is Broken

Washington, D.C. - Congresswoman Ashley Hinson (IA-02) released the following statement after voting to fund the government. 

"The government funding process is beyond broken. As a member of the House Appropriations Committee, I worked to craft and advance 12 conservative, single-subject appropriations bills that cut wasteful spending while delivering on Iowa's priorities. Iowans deserve so much better than the annual shutdown politics and games - a family or a small business would never budget this way, and neither should Congress. A shutdown would only hurt the Iowans we are here to serve and end up costing taxpayers more in the long run. I will continue working to restore regular order to enact conservative spending bills that invest in Iowa while cutting irresponsible spending." - Congresswoman Ashley Hinson
