Washington, DC– Congressman Jim Himes (CT-04) today released the following statement regarding the Republican rescissions package:
“Just weeks after slashing health care and food assistance for millions of families, Republicans are now clawing back funding for public broadcasting, foreign aid programs, and support to Ukraine. Forget making America great, Trump wants us dumber, crueler, and more isolated. Yet again, my colleagues are folding to his intimidation rather than standing up for our democracy.”
