At today’s House Budget Committee hearing, Ranking Member Brendan F. Boyle (PA-02) slammed Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Russell Vought for continuing to dodge testifying before the Committee 15 months into the Congress.

Congressman Brendan F. Boyle (PA-02), Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee, led Committee Democrats in sending a letter to Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Director Russell Vought demanding answers on the Trump Administration’s handling of the cost-of-living crisis and the millions of Americans who Republicans are kicking off their health care. The letter follows Committee Democrats’ request in December that Director Vought testify before the Committee. He refused to appear, becoming the first OMB Director in 50 years to decline to testify before the Committee.
