The power of the purse was entrusted to Congress by our Founders under Article I in the U.S. Constitution. The members of the Democratic majority in the House of Representatives have proven themselves to be unworthy of this trust. In order to fund the government, reasonable spending bills must be put forward.
Instead, the refusal of House Democrats to understand the necessity of efficiency and proper budget operations has forced Congress to rely on a bailout in the form of a continuing resolution. Yes, both parties are guilty of dropping the ball when it comes to spending, but we absolutely cannot afford to continue to do so.
