WASHINGTON – RSC Chairman Mark Walker and RSC Budget and Spending Task Force Chairman Tom McClintock released the following statement following the publication of the RSC's FY 2018 Budget: Securing America's Future Economy.

RSC Chairman Mark Walker said, "The Republican Study Committee unequivocally chooses to restore our Republic. In order to do so, we must reform government in a bold way that reverses fiscally irresponsible decisions that are resulting in an unsustainable budget outlook.

"The appropriate role of a limited government is to protect liberty, opportunity, and security. It is the responsibility of each generation to preserve these principles for the next. The RSC's budget achieves this endeavor in line with these principles by restoring fiscal balance in 2023 through responsible, bold reforms."

RSC Budget and Spending Task Force Chairman Tom McClintock said, "The RSC budget draws from the proposals of RSC members, fiscal agencies and policy think tanks to put freedom back to work and chart a course toward a new era of American prosperity."
