https://www.heller.senate.gov/public/index.cfm/pressreleases?ContentRecord_id=ab4ab872-360f-408a-b8c1-f2646e4fc191	Heller: “I Wanted to Be Able to Support a Deal”	2013-10-16	2013	2013-10	Republican	House	NV	Dean Heller	H001041	www.heller.senate.gov			legacy	(Washington, D.C.) – Today, U.S. Senator Dean Heller (R-NV) voted against another short-term spending measure that kicks the can down the road. Following the vote, Senator Heller issued this statement: “I wanted to be able to support a deal, but this proposal makes no underlying structural changes that will prevent this exact same crisis from happening again in the very near future. Considering this legislation does nothing to place our nation on sound fiscal footing or cultivate a growth economy that will produce jobs in the long term, I cannot support it. “For weeks, Washington, D.C. has been at an impasse. Ultimately, the only solution on which Congress could agree kicks the can down the road and delays the difficult decisions for three short months. Only by passing a long-term budget and all spending bills on time can Washington, D.C. break this cycle of economic brinksmanship. “Clearly, strong enforcement mechanisms are needed to hold Congress accountable for completing its basic duties, which is why both chambers of Congress should immediately pass ‘No Budget, No Pay.’ If Members of Congress do not pass a concurrent budget resolution and all twelve spending bills on time, every year, then they should not get paid,” said Senator Dean Heller.	1	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z	2026-03-30T12:14:52Z
