Aderholt | A000055 | aderholt.house.gov | aderholt | https://aderholt.house.gov/media-center/press-releases | scraper | WASHINGTON — Today, Congressman Robert Aderholt (AL-04), Chairman of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Labor, Health & Human Services and Education, brought his FY24 funding bill to the House Floor. This bill, better known as Labor-H, represents the largest non-defense discretionary spending in the federal budget. “In this bill, we are cutting almost 30% and will bring funding back to roughly 2018 Trump-era levels,” said Congressman Aderholt. “These cuts trim the fat and force these government agencies to run lean and mean. There will still be plenty of money for these departments and agencies to do their critical jobs, but do it more efficiently.” “Our nation remains mired in high inflation, which has only been worsened by the massive infusion of government spending, both during and immediately after the COVID pandemic. “I have said numerous times – inflation is a tax on every single American. Moreover, it is a tax borne disproportionately by low-income Americans. We cannot continue to make our constituents pay for our reckless DC beltway spending. At some point, we must stop the out-of-control spending spree we’ve seen over the past two years.” Congressman Aderholt’s full remarks are attached to this email.
