New Hampshire Residents Deserve Explanation Why She Won’t Support This Balanced Approach

Today, the House voted on a common-sense plan to balance the budget, create jobs, and spur economic growth. House Democrats, including Annie Kuster, stood firmly against this proposal, voting no just a few minutes ago. This on the heels of a new paid web ad from the NRCC telling Kuster and her Democratic colleagues to do their job and balance the budget.

Democrats like Kuster believe we don’t need to balance the budget—ever—and we can tax and spend our way to economic growth. Americans are looking for leaders who understand that, in order to create jobs, Washington must balance their budget, just like families do.

“Today, Annie Kuster and her Democrat allies stood firmly against a pro-growth plan to balance the budget and bring fiscal stability to the middle class,” said NRCC Communications Director Andrea Bozek. “New Hampshire residents deserve an explanation why they need to balance their own budgets, but Washington doesn’t.”
