Kurt Couchman of Americans for Prosperity on the Federal Budget

June 8, 2023

Kurt Couchman is Senior Fellow in Fiscal Policy for Americans for Prosperity.

We’ll discuss the absolute cluster-f that is the federal budget and the process of creating it.

Spending by Joe Biden and Democrats when they controlled the entire Congress led to 40-year high inflation and has driven the national debt to over $31 trillion. Our budgeting system is broken. It must be fixed. Democrats cannot spend us into oblivion and they're getting close.

With the debt ceiling deal we'll now have two years until the next debt limit showdown. How will we prepare? What new ideas do we need?
