Tom has been a fiscal hawk while voting for the structural changes needed to tackle our debt and deficit. Tom opposed Biden era trillion dollar debt bombs like the American Rescue Plan, and voted for the first substantive reforms to Medicaid and SNAP in years as part of the One Big Beautiful Bill saving the taxpayers trillions of dollars over the next several years. He also supported the incredibly important rescissions package eliminating woke wasteful spending under Biden’s USAID and public broadcasting, saving taxpayers billions.
As Chairman of the powerful House Appropriations Committee, Tom has been a champion for taxpayers in cutting waste, identifying fraud, and prioritizing the funding of critical functions of our government for the American people.
