Nice diversion.
Trying to hide Hunters big spending record by somehow blaming Steven Moore whoever he is.
If Hunter spent it, it was spent on the war you and your president support.
NOT so nice diversion by you.
STATEMENT OF REP. HUNTER IN VOTING AGAINST THE TRANSPORTATION BILL
The House and Senate approved a $218 billion transportation funding bill which included billions of dollars in questionable, non-transportation funding. A list of some of those projects follows Rep. Duncan Hunter's (R-CA) statement.
"At a time when the Army faces a shortage of $1.7 billion in basic ammunition and our Marines are short $193 million, the highway bill contains $9 billion in funding for such things as a botanical garden, museum exhibits and a film on ‘infrastructure awareness.'
"While I support funding to build and repair our highways and this bill has many good projects, I could not in good conscience vote for legislation which overspends the balanced budget and will possibly take money away from our national
defense."http://www.house.gov/hunter/news_prior_2006/hiway.htm
HUNTER HONORED BY SMALL BUSINESS ORGANIZATION
Washington, D.C. – Congressman Duncan Hunter (CA-52) was presented with the "Guardian of Small Business" award this afternoon by the National Federation of Independent Business (NFIB), the nation's largest small-business advocacy group. NFIB President Jack Faris presented the award to Congressman Hunter for his voting record on behalf of small business owners in the 106th Congress.
"The record shows that when the roll is called, Representative Hunter has been a true and consistent advocate for Main Street small business," said Faris.
"I'm very proud to have received this award," said Hunter. "The small business community is a vital part of America's economy, but far too often, they are forced to function under too many regulations and heavy tax burdens. I believe this is wrong, and I will continue working to remove these obstacles and allow small businesses to earn their full potential."
NFIB tallied Congressman Hunter's voting record on 20 key small-business votes in the House of Representatives taken during the 106th Congress. Issues range from legal-reform measures, to regulatory relief, to a variety of tax-relief measures.
