Member of the House of Representatives Allocation Committee Rosa Delauro, D-Conn., Slaid GOP proposal in a statement released Saturday.

“With the basis of closing a book about negotiations for a full year funding bill that helps the middle class and protect our national security, my colleagues on the other side of the hall have handed over their strength to billionaires that are not chosen,” he added.
