Federal Spending

Appropriate Demands for Appropriations

All has been quiet in the halls of Congress since Members returned home for August recess. This time is officially called a District Work period and there are still conversations happening with the media and with each other on the upcoming agenda. One particular issue that is time-sensitive and very much in the spotlight is the appropriations process – the annual ritual in which Congress must hammer out just how much of your money the federal government will spend over the upcoming year.

Sen. Schumer

Schumer Deals Weed Bill

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) introduced a bill to legalize marijuana this week.

We Need More Parent Outrage

Several contested races for school board were decided in my community this week. We were very optimistic that we were riding a wave of parent outrage that we had seen expressed in Loudoun County, Virginia, and San Francisco, when entrenched school board members were ousted by the voters.
