We need less government spending and fewer regulations. Sadly, these bills do just the opposite.” One of the spending measures advanced by Speaker Pelosi this week increases the budget of the IRS by 14 percent, increases the budget of the EPA by 23 percent, and even increases the budget of the White House by 39 percent. | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T20:03:51Z |
