Congressman Sam Johnson (R-TX) released the following statement opposing the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2013. 

“I cannot support a deal that spends more money – money we do not have.  To create a better and stronger America for our children and grandchildren we must work to cut spending now, pay down our skyrocketing multi-trillion debt now, and slash our deficits now, not in the future.   As a sign in my office sums it up well, ‘it’s the spending, stupid.’ Plain and simple - the American people want Washington to tax less, to spend less and to borrow less.  That’s exactly what I intend to continue doing.”
