Steve Knight on Budget & Economy

	Steve Knight on Budget & Economy

We need enforceable caps on government spending

The "tax and spend" politics that has become commonplace for our government is egregious and unnecessary. The federal government must be held accountable for spending just as the American people are. To ensure a sustainable future, we must take measures today. First, we need to start with a balanced budget. We need enforceable caps on government spending and pay down the national debt. Through long term fiscal and debt policies, we can reduce annual deficits and reduce our fiscal burden for our children Source: 2014 Cal. House campaign website, SteveKnight.org , Nov 4, 2014

Knight: Strongly Agree

Q: It is the government's responsibility to be sure everyone has health care and a livable income?

Knight: Disagree
