Mike Castle has voted against fiscal responsibility today by voting no on restoring the Pay-Go Rules that would require lawmakers to find ways to pay for proposed spending increases in entitlement programs or for any tax cuts by offsetting them with higher taxes or reduced spending elsewhere in the budget. The Pay-Go Rules were in affect during the 1990’s and helped President Clinton balance the federal budget and produce a record surplus. Once Republicans captured the Presidency in 2000, the Pay-Go rules were abolished to allow for Bush’s tax cuts and record unchecked spending supported by the Republican Congress, including Mike Castle.
