WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Rep. Burgess Owens (UT-04) released the following statement on the passage of Democrats’ $3.5 Trillion Budget:

“While Americans reel from soaring inflation and an abdication of leadership in Afghanistan, Speaker Pelosi shielded her members from an unpopular vote by using a procedural gimmick to ram through Biden’s $3,500,000,000,000 hyper-partisan budget without debate. Utahns see right through this and deserve more transparency from the elected leaders recklessly blowing through their taxpayer dollars.”
