Congressman Steve Womack (AR-3) today released the following statement after House passage of the Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 (H.R. 1314):

“This budget agreement is far from ideal, but providing for our men and women in uniform and for the full faith and credit of the United States is not an option.  It is a responsibility.  And as an appropriator, I appreciate the fact that it gives our committee a chance to actually do its work.”  

Congressman Steve Womack has represented Arkansas’s Third Congressional District since 2011 and serves on the House Appropriations Defense, Financial Services and General Government, and Labor-Health and Human Services subcommittees and the House Committee on the Budget.
