Opposition to the end of taxpayer funding for campaigns (Rep. Tom Cole)

With a $1.4 trillion deficit, both parties need to work together to cut spending. We’ve got a lot of tough decisions ahead, and it’s not a good sign that the Democrats are squealing about cutting a program only 7 percent of Americans support.

This bill provides an early test of the president’s commitment to reducing the deficit. If the administration won’t support the elimination of an outdated program that doesn’t benefit a single ordinary American, what cuts will they support?
