That is why I am co-sponsoring HJR 2, which would amend the Constitution to require a balanced budget.

It would also require a three-fifths vote in both houses to raise the debt limit. The amendment would go into effect two years after ratification, giving Congress time to balance its budget in a responsible way.Solution to our deficit problem: Balanced budget amendment
