Rep. Earl L. “Buddy” Carter (R-GA) expressed approval following the passage of a rescissions package by House Republicans. The package, sent by President Trump, aims to save $9.4 billion as identified by the Department of Government Efficiency.

Carter stated, “House Republicans were sent to Washington, D.C. with a trifecta and a mandate to restore sanity to the federal government and stand by President Trump, which is exactly what we did today by passing this rescissions package.” He urged the Senate to act swiftly in order to redirect funds towards “America First policies and deficit reduction.”

The focus now shifts to the Senate for further action on this financial measure.
