FreedomWorks Statement in Response to HFC and RSC Opposition to Proposed Budget Deal

07/25/2019

WASHINGTON, D.C. -- In response to the House Freedom Caucus (HFC) and the Republican Study Committee’s (RSC) formal opposition to the proposed budget deal, Adam Brandon, FreedomWorks President, commented:

“This budget deal is abysmal, and fiscal conservatives in the House Freedom Caucus and Republican Study Committee know it, too. Thankfully they are ready to be leaders in standing up against a horrific ‘deal,’ because elected Republican leadership sure is not.

“So-called Republican ‘leadership’ should be ashamed that they even considered this deal in the first place. Apparently, they would rather take the coward’s route and bankrupt the nation against all principles. Fortunately, true fiscal conservatives can look to leadership outside of ‘leadership’ for their guiding principles, thanks to the HFC and the RSC.”

BY Sarah Anderson

Today, the Republican Study Committee’s Government Efficiency, Accountability, and Reform (GEAR) Task Force released its first report, Power, Practices, Personnel: 100+ Commonsense Solutions to a Better Government on bettering the way that our government is run in Washington.

Key Vote NO on the Short-Term Continuing Resolution, House Message to Accompany H.R. 3055

On behalf of FreedomWorks’ activist community, I urge you to contact your senators and ask them to vote NO on the short-term continuing resolution, House Message to Accompany H.R. 3055.
