WATCH: Chairman Walberg Speaks in Support of Trump-Endorsed House Budget Resolution

WASHINGTON, D.C., February 25, 2025
WASHINGTON – Today, Education and Workforce Committee Chairman Tim Walberg (R-MI) spoke on the House Floor in support of the Trump-endorsed House budget resolution.
 


Chairman Walberg's Remarks:

"In November, the American people delivered a clear and resolute mandate to this Congress: rein in out-of-control government spending.
 
"For too long, bureaucrats in Washington recklessly spent Americans’ hard-earned tax dollars and drove up our national debt to nearly catastrophic levels; hurting all Americans and especially the most vulnerable.
 
"For example, the Biden-Harris administration attempted to spend as much as $1 trillion through illegal and irresponsible student loan bailouts. 
 
"And virtually nothing was done to control the cost of the federal student loan program, meaning students will be able to take on even more in student loan debt and drive up the burden on all Americans—even those who never went to college or received a degree. 
 
"Why should we continue to spend Americans’ tax dollars on a system that is clearly not working?
 
"Something must change, and Americans are sick and tired of this wasteful spending.
 
"With Republicans in control of the House, Senate, and White House, we have a real opportunity to cut through the waste, fraud, abuse, and falsehoods in Washington.
 
"Reconciliation provides us with a chance to address Washington’s spending problem. 
 
"Under the new Trump administration, we can cut spending, deliver on the mandate given to us by the American people, and put more money back into Americans’ pockets."
