Statement on House of Representatives Passage of Federal Budget 
Legislation
May 18, 2006

    The House's vote to pass a responsible budget marks a positive step 
toward controlling Federal spending. This Budget Resolution helps 
enforce spending discipline and moves us in the right direction to fund 
our Nation's key priorities. I congratulate Chairman Nussle, the House leadership, and all Members of the House 
who voted for this budget for their hard work and commitment to spending 
restraint.
