Objective of this Blog

It is my intention of posting items here that I find of interest to the general reader who has a concern for what is happening in the United States today. My view is from a left of center perspective. This is done with the knowledge that my sources or myself might be wrong. I will not print anything I don't have good reason to believe is true knowing that someone else may not agree.

Congressional Spending

From The Record's "North Jersey Tally" in regard to votes taken in Congress on 8/4/13 I found these two votes of interest.  First, senators failed to agree on appropriating $ 54 billion for transportation and housing program or releasing $ 53 billion for road projects.

Second, the Senate overwhelmingly agreed not to conceal the $ 1.5 billion yearly aid to Egypt even thou US law forbids aid to a government established by military takeover of an elected government.

Something wrong with our priorities here.
