Van Hollen Comments on Rescission Package

July 18th, 2025 by WCBC Radio

Maryland U.S. Senator Chris Van Hollen spoke on the floor of the Senate on the rescission package that cuts $9 billion dollars from many government-supported programs.  The bill passed the Senate 51-48, but Van Hollen noted Republican members of congress reversed what they had just voted to pass less than two weeks ago…

“One day Republicans vote for a package that includes essential investments, and the next day they turn around on a party-line vote and erase the investments that were just signed into law.”
