Limit federal spending to protect future commitments

Jim Jordan supports reining in federal spending, which he describes as out of control. He says Congress must address spending and unfunded future benefit liabilities to help keep promises to retirees and provide a sound future for younger generations. He points to offering fiscal-discipline amendments during the FY2008 appropriations process as an earlier effort to hold down spending.

Context: The passage does not identify specific spending cuts, amendment provisions, or a current budget plan.

In their own words

I stood on the House floor to offer a series of “fiscal discipline amendments” to hold the line on runaway federal spending.
