WASHINGTON, D.C. – With the Senate expected to address providing additional funds for disaster aid soon, Sen. Rand Paul is calling for spending offsets from foreign aid to fund increased disaster assistance. Increasing federal funding for disaster assistance should be allocated without increasing our national debt – but rather through equal cuts in foreign spending.
“When the issue of disaster-assistance funding is brought before the Senate, I plan to insist my fellow Senators take a long, hard look at where the funding comes from: Will it be more borrowing on the backs of our children and grandchildren, or will it be from the coffers of our numerous nation-building programs overseas? America’s priorities should come first,” Sen. Paul said.
