WASHINGTON – Rep. Kay Granger (TX), the Lead Republican on the House Appropriations Committee, released the following statement on the passing of Congresswoman Jackie Walorski (IN).
"I am shocked and saddened to hear of the tragic death of my colleague, Jackie Walorski, and two of her dedicated staff members, Zachery Potts, her district director, and Emma Thomson, her communications director. My heart goes out to their families.
"Jackie was a wonderful person, and her passing is a great loss for Indiana and for our country."
Title 42
Madam Chair, thank you for yielding.
The revised allocations presented today do not change the spending levels that were adopted on a party-line vote last week. Because there are no substantive changes, I must once again oppose them.
It is unacceptable to Members on my side of the aisle to underfund our national defense while giving significant increases to the same social programs that received trillions of dollars over the last year. I hope we can find common ground as these bills move to the floor.
