The current process has led to five continuing resolutions in a single fiscal year. This morning, Congress again failed in its responsibility to the American people.

I support funding our military and a number of other provisions in the bill. But we can and should keep our nation strong and secure without requiring irresponsible spending increases, ignoring the deficit, and growing the size of the federal government.
