Washington D.C. – House Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy released the following statement regarding the House Republican FY 15 Budget – The Path to Prosperity:

“Today, under the leadership of Budget Chairman Paul Ryan, House Republicans unveiled our blueprint to change our nation’s dangerous course of crushing deficits and damaging debt. Our plan expands opportunity and growth for all Americans and offers a stark contrast to the policies of overspending that have become engrained in Washington. In keeping the promises to our seniors, this blueprint also secures the long-term stability of our social safety nets while the President and House Democrats remain silent on reforms to protect these programs from collapsing under their own weight. I thank Chairman Ryan for once again putting forward a responsible budget blueprint and look forward to another honest discussion in the House of Representatives of the future and vision for our nation.”
