WASHINGTON, D.C.U.S. Senator Peter Welch (D-Vt.) released the following statement on Senate Republicans’ budget: 

“This budget is totally irresponsible—it will damage our economy and hurt kids and seniors. President Trump and Senate Republicans are forcing a reckless budget that will cut the services and programs Americans rely on to finance over $4 trillion of tax cuts for Elon Musk and their billionaire friends.”
