Update – 9:00PM: Earlier this evening, Senator Harry Reid (D-NV) decided against proceeding with the omnibus bill, promising instead to pursue a short-term continuing resolution.

As we reported this week, Congress is considering a new $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill. This 2,000 page monster is the result of a refusal by Congress to pass a budget and a partisan desire to bind the hands of the next Congress with an expansive spending bill rather than a short-term continuing resolution. Sen.  Mitch McConnell’s (R-KY) office has demonstrated how a simple, one-page spending bill could suffice. But despite a sharp rebuke of out-of-control spending from voters during the last election, and promises from President Obama himself, members of Congress are determined to push forward.

Our short, new video highlights President Obama’s own promise after last year’s $410 billion omnibus bill that he does not support the very sort of massive spending bill that the White House is now endorsing.

Please take a moment to watch the video and share it with others. Yet another bill that increases spending, funds Obamacare, contains nearly 6,500 earmarks, and generally pushes our nation further into debt is not what we need.
