Hopefully the administration recognized ordsprog

Hopefully, the administration recognized that Congress soundly rejected last year's proposed zero, substituting $1.3 billion in its place. The administration is now expressing some flexibility to negotiate a more realistic budget.

This matter goes back to 1982. The Reagan Administration did nothing. The Bush Administration did nothing. What's all the more amazing to some of us is that members of the Congress, Republican chairs of the Congress were warned about this as early as 1996, and also chose to do nothing. This administration is the first to do something,

Unfortunately, the Administration's budget plans won't take any real bite out of this unacceptable tax gap –- it just nibbles at this crisis while the deficit grows. The Administration is proposing a $3.5 billion solution to a $3.5 trillion problem.

We are concerned that this year?s proposed budget by the administration reduces effective funding for tribal priorities.

We will spend less money next year than we did two years ago -- not very much less. The administration, having lowered the bar, got more of what it wanted out of Congress. At the end, the administration was holding the whip hand because it was Congress that wanted to go home.

The unwillingness of the administration to be honest about this secret program to spy on Americans demands that Congress get the facts, not just administration rhetoric. The truth can be determined without compromising national security. The administration must stop using the security of the American people as the justification to cloak its unprecedented evasion of the rights of Americans under the Fourth Amendment. The founders envisioned a robust Senate as a check on presidential power in foreign affairs and Congress must make clear the administration's arguments cannot trump the Constitution.

This is about the right of the Congress to oversee the executive branch, the right of the GAO to assist Congress, ... Our concern is that never before have we had a situation where an administration has refused to provide this kind of information, whether it be a Democratic or Republican administration.

If the Congress decides that the priority for this engine is higher than the DoD has proposed, then I'm sure the Congress will be able to soundly and thoughtfully restore the program in a way that will be the least damaging to everything else.

The administration's forthcoming budget is expected to have approximately $200 billion in missing costs in the fifth year, ... Once these missing costs are taken into account, the deficit is seen as being in the range of $500 billion in 2009, or around 3.5 percent of GDP. That is not close to cutting the deficit in half.

We thank those Senators, both Republican and Democrat, who stood firm against tremendous pressure from the Bush administration, pro-drilling members of Congress and their allies in the oil industry. They recognize that the budget is an inappropriate place to decide controversial national policy matters like America's energy policy. We urge all members of Congress to remain steadfast in their belief that the vast, unspoiled wilderness of America?s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is more than a line item in the Federal Budget.
