Rules Committee Record Vote No. 14
|
|
Motion by Mr. Hastings of Florida to amend the rule to S. 47 to make in order and provide the appropriate waivers for amendment #1, offered by Rep. Van Hollen (MD), which replaces the entire sequester for 2013—which would cause deep cuts to domestic priorities and defense—with savings from specific policies that reflect a balanced approach to deficit reduction. Protects our most vulnerable citizens, asks those earning over $1 million per year to contribute more, eliminates agriculture direct payments, and cuts subsidies for large oil companies. Defeated: 2–7
