In this year's budget, Congress had a 0.8% cut in spending to federal agencies. 0-point-frikkin-8 percent. Well, let's not tighten that belt too much!
The appropriations bill includes $20 billion for the Department of the Interior, the U.S. Forest Service, and certain research programs at the Department of Energy. In other words: Timber, Oil, and Power Plant Subsidies NOT LEFT BEHIND!
