What good is a Congressional budget of they can later decide to claw back funds or simply withhold payments that the prior Congress approved? Many organizations rely on federal funding to provide food, housing, healthcare and education to people in need. This is cruel.

They need that money to refund it back to the rich people financing their campaigns. They're just a bunch of prostitutes, squandering your Tax Money for their personal needs.
