Trump’s ‘Rescission’ Package Would Save Unspent Tax Dollars

President Donald Trump on Tuesday submitted a special message to Congress requesting that $15 billion in unspent funding be rescinded.
That’s a good first step toward re-establishing fiscal responsibility. Congress should embrace it and quickly adopt the president’s rescission package.
Still, the package does nothing to claw back the tens of billions of additional dollars in wasteful spending authorized by the 2018 Omnibus Appropriations Act. Nor is it the answer to the nation’s long-term debt problem.
Congress and the president should work together on additional rescission packages that target 2018 spending and pass a fiscal year 2019 budget that rolls back the latest budget deal and addresses the programs driving the national debt.....................
