[judithwilliams]

If we don't have enough money QUIT SENDING IT TO OTHER COUNTRIES!

[malindarobinson]

SHUT THE GOVERNMENT DOWN!! STOP SENDING MONEY TO UKRAINE! THERE'S YOUR SAVINGS!

[davex]

No compromise should be made until there is a plan to fix the mess at the border.

[rclark]

Cut senate and congress pay! That’s a huge savings!! Term limits!!

[frankm]

Cut the majority of government funded programs. Get the federal government out of my pocket and balance the budget.

[gregoryyork]

If WIC was better monitored the way it should be used then should be more than enough money in the program. Tired of seeing three shopping carts full of steaks driving away in a new full size Cadillac Escalades.

[marywhite]

Yes, CUT GOVERNMENT PAY!! LET THEM LIVE LIKE WE HAVE, OH WAIT, THEYRE ALREADY RICH!! IT WONT HURT THEM.

[marci]

We the people want the three letter agencies cut!

3:12 Thete was s time when people were expected to provide for their own families. WIC didn't replace parental responsibility. Now, the government wants full control of our children and parents expect it! And exactly when did YOU start caring about Seniors? I am one. Waiting...

[tonyhines]

Im sick of people getting free shit and these illegal monsters getting free phones and hotel stay

[desilanni]

The most important thing to pass right now is the border. Find something else to cut. Use the Covid money.
Shift the costs to the states.

[texasstrong]

Shut done the Government and stop sending money to Ukraine!

[mxcraider]

Yes McGovern when you are $33, 000, 000, 000, 000 in debt you have to make cuts... a lot of them. If you are that worried about WIC, send them a check.

[JimJones-gfiz]

As far as cutting waste I suggest cutting all congress and adminastration pay by at least 50% until they start getting something done.They are getting more than they are worth even if they were doing their job. If there is a shut down they should not get ANY pay until they fix it.

[tamiclark]

TAKE CARE OF THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FIRTS CHARITY STARTS AT HOME IF WE CANT HELP OUR OWN WHY ARE WE TRYING TO TAKE CARE RESCUE OTHERS OUTSIDE OF OUR OWN PEOPLE.

[marci]

Take out money to Ukraine and everything would be fine! How come you don’t show the people everything on that bill and keep border closed!

[humblebynature]

Stop giving Ukraine and these migrants money so we can take care of our own SMH

[lorifelts]

The fact that the CR bill in Senate came from McConnel at this point in time I would not trust that man for anything

[marywhite]

Why wont the government show the americans whats in the BILL? WE HAVE THAT RIGHT!!! WE DEMAND THAT RIGHT.
