First she made herself known as our own local auditor of government, helping to keep people honest and spending legal--and lower. Then, as our Senator, Claire McCaskill pushed for killing the spending, wasteful "earmarks" of our federal budgets. Now, Senator McCaskill is pushing for and introducing a bill "that would give President Barack Obama – and future presidents – line-item veto power" over the budget. And thank goodness. Everyone talks about reducing spending. Senator McCaskill keeps proposing good, sensible, workable ways we could--and should--reduce spending. Thank you, Senator McCaskill, from one Democrat to another. Link: http://www.kansascity.com/2012/02/10/3420610/mccaskill-introducing-line-item.html
