U.S. Rep. Blaine Luetkemeyer (MO-03) issued the following statement after President Trump and his administration released the Fiscal Year 2018 budget titled “A New Foundation for American Greatness.”

“Unlike any budget proposed by the previous administration, President Trump’s budget will balance within the 10-year budget window and start to pay off our national debt,” Luetkemeyer said.  “President Trump clearly recognizes that we must reverse course and get our nation’s fiscal house in order, and I look forward to working with the President, Director Mulvaney, and my colleagues as the House begins consideration of the Fiscal Year 2018 budget.”
