Now, generous tax breaks for the wealthy are being used to justify eliminating funds that, of all things, were set aside to provide children's health care and help disaster-struck communities recover. The Administrations misplaced priorities couldnt be any clearer. The process of this rescission package goes beyond the pale in bypassing the Appropriations Committee entirely to go right to the House floor. Caving to the Presidents latest whims in this way would set a harmful precedent. Congress can barely keep the governments doors open as is. Knowing that tough decisions about spending agreements can be reversed at any time will only make the process more difficult and uncertain. With so many issues deserving Congress attention, I cant believe were wasting valuable time with this rescission package.	1	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
