Fighting Against Wasteful Spending
Posted: Thursday, October 4, 2012
The Department of Defense (DOD) is spending money that we don’t have on a missile system – the Medium Extended Air Defense System (MEADS) – that it will never use. I’ve been working with a bipartisan group of senators who agree that it’s long past time to cancel this failed experiment. The entire federal government—including the DOD—must be able and willing to tighten their belts in these tough fiscal times, and MEADS is on a road to nowhere. It’s time to bring some Colorado common sense to our budgeting process and do away with programs that are not a good investment of taxpayer dollars.
