Capito Statement on Rescissions Package

WASHINGTON, D.C. – U.S. Senator Shelley Moore Capito (R-W.Va.) issued the following statement on her vote to pass the rescissions package submitted by the Trump administration:

“Senate Republicans have listened to the American people who want us to rein in spending,” Senator Capito said. “Senate Republicans responded by passing a rescissions package that eliminates wasteful spending, an important step towards getting America’s fiscal house back in order. The last four years saw example after example of misused taxpayer dollars. I am proud to support this legislation that takes a small but necessary step to rein in federal spending and save taxpayer dollars.
