John Barrow’s budget blunder
Did you know that John Barrow has voted against every budget in Congress since his first year elected in 2005?
Shockingly, Barrow’s favorite campaign line is calling on Congress for a “balanced approach” to our nation’s budget woes. Seems hypocritical right?
As you cover the budget battle in Washington, please remember that John Barrow has voted against every budget since 2005 and please consider using the following quote:
NRCC Statement: “John Barrow is the definition of a career politician in Washington. He claims to want a balanced approach to fixing our budget problems but has voted against every budget option put forth since his first year elected in 2005. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to figure out that John Barrow’s budget concerns are all smoke and mirrors.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Katie Prill
