The last two days have been particularly outrageous with the process driven by a handful of people behind closed doors. The result is a 1,603-page bill larded with pork and favors for special interests. The funding bill also fails to address the president’s unconstitutional immigration order. “I promised Idahoans I would do everything in my power to stem the growth of our now-$18 trillion debt, which Congress refuses to do. Next year, with both the House and Senate in Republican hands, my sincere hope is we quit stalling and enact meaningful spending reforms.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
