WASHINGTON, April 14, 2011 /Standard Newswire/ -- U.S. Congressman Mike Pence issued the following statement today after voting against the FY2011 Continuing Resolution in the U.S. House of Representatives today:
"This nation is facing a fiscal crisis of unprecedented proportions. I opposed the Continuing Resolution today because, in the face of our fiscal crisis, this budget deal is not good enough.
"The time has come for Congress and this administration to get serious about confronting the crisis with bold fiscal discipline and reform. I look forward to working with my colleagues in both parties as we steer our national government back to fiscal solvency and policies that will promote economic growth."
