The President is also objecting to our proposal to save one percent from eliminating government waste, fraud and abuse. I'd suggest they look harder. The American people seem to have no trouble finding it. Our own House Budget Committee recently launched a web page inviting the public to let them know about examples of government waste they have encountered. Ultimately, the President's veto today is a defeat for common-sense.
School boards know better than Washington bureaucrats how to best use education funding.
When government waste exists, it should be eliminated. These are common sense goals.
