Hoyer: We're Advancing a Bill that Does Not Adequately Invest in Making Congress Work for the People

Published | Video Starts at 03:50

Frankly, I'm disappointed that we are once again advancing the bill that does not adequately invest in making Congress work for the people. While I'm glad That includes additional $50 million for MRA accounts, allowing for us. And by the way, We are giving two agencies $179 billion in the last reconciliation bill and this reconciliation passes, we're going to give them three years. Mr. Chairman. Big chairman. We don't have any oversight over that. That is a undermining of the appropriators responsibility to oversee budgets. Would the gentleman yield? (03:50–04:03)
