Episode description

Congressman Steve Womack, former Chairman of the House Budget Committee, joined Rep. Crenshaw to explain in layman’s terms what is going on in Congress right now with the budget negotiations. They cover the tactical and strategic errors that got us into this mess and why the few GOP holdouts are pushing demands that will almost inevitably lead to more liberal spending bills. Rep. Womack also lays out the constitutional reforms he would like to see implemented to fix the budget process. And they cover the #1 problem that will drive America off a fiscal cliff: entitlement spending.

Congressman Womack represents the 3rd District of Arkansas. He serves on the House Committee on Appropriations and serves as Chairman of the Subcommittee on Financial Services and General Government. Follow him on X at @rep_stevewomack.
