Rep. Dean Heller announces Budget Spending Cut - Las Vegas Democrat | Examiner.com

Rep. Dean Heller (R-NV) today has announced that he will join the soon to be Speaker of the House John Boehner (R-OH), on a spending cut to highlight just how serious they are about cutting government spending and waste.

John Boehner will introduce the Reduction of Irresponsible Members Representational Allowance Growth Act that was first introduced by Heller in 2009. The (MRA) is an allowance given to each member of congress to pay for office upgrades for new carpets, furniture, etc.

Rep. Heller said, “The proposed cuts to congressional office budgets would be a meaningful step towards true fiscal responsibility”.

There is nothing that says you are more serious about spending cuts, than cutting your tax payer paid office furniture expenses. A few more office cut backs, and that nasty budget deficit will be a thing of the past, in about 300 years.

If Dean Heller truly wants to show his support for cutting budgets, such as the national budget deficit, he could start by showing his support against adding $700 billion to the deficit via tax cuts for the richest Americans. That would be a true “meaningful step towards true fiscal responsibility”.
