DeSantis Statement on Omnibus No Vote

Statement

Date: March 22, 2018

Rep. Ron DeSantis (FL-06) issued the following statement regarding his no vote on passage of the omnibus spending bill:

"The 2,232 page omnibus spending bill passed the House after being publicly available for less than 17 hours. This bill was drafted by a handful of members and staffers behind closed doors without the input of rank-and-file members. Nobody had time to read it, much less understand it. Stuffing more than $1.3 trillion in spending and a number of unrelated policy issues into a single, mammoth bill and ramming it through without any time for scrutiny shows that Congress has hit rock bottom."
