With that said, it was important and responsible for the House to move today's bill to ensure that we continue to fund priorities that Arkansans reply upon such as $2.85 billion for the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) and the Veterans Choice program. I look forward to coming back early January to fully exercise our Article 1 power of the purse,' and I am committed to working with my colleagues to ensure that taxpayers dollars are being spent wisely with oversight and accountability.
