Budget

The president submits a budget to Congress by the first Monday in February every year (has Obozo ever done this?.

The budget contains estimates of federal government income and spending for the upcoming fiscal year and also recommends funding levels for the federal government.

Congress then must pass appropriations bills based on the president’s recommendations and Congressional priorities.

If Congress does not pass all appropriations measures by the start of the fiscal year (October 1), it has to enact a continuing resolution to keep the government running.

So they used a CR and made it by “Mutual Agreement” a 2 year span so no one has to answer questions about it on the campaign trail...

Still think there is no RICO going on?

I say that’s ALL we ask them about
