President Pleased Senate Passes Omnibus Budget Bill
I am pleased that the Senate has passed the omnibus budget bill, which fulfills important commitments like AIDS relief, education and D.C. school choice, veterans health care, law enforcement, and other priorities.
This bill stays within the spending limits I proposed, which is necessary as we work to cut the deficit in half over the next five years. I will continue to work with the Congress to focus on priorities, cut wasteful spending, and be wise with the people's money. I look forward to signing this bill into law.
