WASHINGTON – Today, Senator Lee released the following statement as a strong endorsement of the recently passed “Cut, Cap, and Balance” Act in the House of Representatives:

“Cut, Cap, and Balance is Plan A, B, and C because it is the only plan that will, a, protect the U.S. triple-A bond rating, b, balance the budget, and, c, raise the debt ceiling with Republican support,” said Senator Lee. 

“Senate Democrats should stop wasting time we don’t have fiddling with plans that won’t work.  The House did the right thing.  Now it’s time for Senate Democrats and the President to do their part and pass the ‘Cut, Cap, and Balance Act’.”
