Crapo Statement on Senate-Passed Rescissions Package

Washington, D.C.--U.S. Senator Mike Crapo (R-Idaho) issued the following statement on the Senate’s passage of the $9 billion rescissions package:

“I cast my vote in support of rescinding funds for wasteful foreign aid programs that have deviated from their original intent or that do not promote American interests.  By reducing waste, fraud and abuse in federal spending, we can better ensure the long-term viability of the programs most critical for our national security and for global health programs that protect Americans from the spread of fatal diseases.”
