AFP’s Kurt Couchman: It’s Time to Fix the Broken Budget Process

Kurt Couchman, Senior Fellow in Fiscal Policy at Americans for Prosperity, joins Hugh Hewitt to break down why the latest government shutdown is “about nothing” and how Congress can end this cycle of dysfunction. Couchman explains why shutdowns didn’t exist before the Carter era, outlines AFP’s new <a href="https://makegovernmentwork.com">MakeGovernmentWork.com</a> campaign to reform the budget process, and warns of the real fiscal crisis looming if Washington doesn’t act. From cutting wasteful spending to passing balanced budget amendments, Couchman lays out a roadmap to get America’s fiscal house in order before it’s too late.<br><br>Sponsored by AFP.
