  • In 2011, Dennis Kucinich voted against HJRes 2, a balanced budget amendment to the United States Constitution. The amendment would have prohibited "outlays for a fiscal year (except those for repayment of debt principal) from exceeding total receipts for that fiscal year (except those derived from borrowing) unless Congress, by a three-fifths rollcall vote of each chamber, authorizes a specific excess of outlays over receipts."[1]
  • In 2011, Kucinich voted for HR 2663, which increased the federal debt limit.[2]
  • In 2006, Kucinich voted against HR 2890, which would have given the president line-item veto authority by providing "for the expedited consideration of certain proposed rescissions of budget authority."[4]
