SUPPORT THE A TO Z CUT SPENDING PLAN
(Mr. STEARNS asked and was given permission to address the House for
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
Mr. STEARNS. Mr. Speaker, I want to encourage all Members to sign the
discharge petition to bring H.R. 3266 to the floor. This bill known as
the A to Z spending cut bill will give every Member the opportunity to
bring specific spending cut amendments to the floor for a vote. It
provides for free and open debate and an up-or-down vote on each and
every proposal.
This is a commonsense plan that would help cut out waste and fat from
our Government's budget.
The bill has over 227 cosponsors and in spite of the opposition who
fear reduced spending, the will of this body and the cry of taxpayers
across this country will be heard.
