SHAHEEN: DUPLICATIVE PROGRAMS ARE SMART CUTS

(Washington, D.C.) – U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen (D-N.H.) released the following statement today in response to the GAO report identifying duplicative government programs:

“This is a chance to make smart cuts, instead of reckless cuts. Today’s GAO report shows us a path forward to responsibly, effectively reduce the deficit without slashing investment in our economy, cutting private sector job growth, or endangering the most vulnerable members of our society. We must eliminate outdated and unnecessary programs, as I have proposed before and as the GAO suggests here.”
