Democratic Party Kaine on budgets

  • On his official U.S. Senate site in 2016, Tim Kaine wrote, "As a member of the Budget Committee, I am committed to working with my colleagues to return to a normal budget process and put an end to short-term gimmicks and governing by crisis." He also wrote about his experience as governor of Virginia: "As a Governor who had to keep a budget balanced during the worst recession in a generation and the only Governor in modern times to leave office with a smaller general fund than the one I inherited, I believe my experience is of value on the Budget Committee as Congress wrestles with the fiscal challenges our nation continues to face. Through rigorous debate and compromise, we can put forward a balanced and comprehensive deficit reduction plan that puts our country on a sustainable path and protects the investments that are critical to our future."[1]
  • Kaine helped pass two-year budgets in 2013 and 2015 as a member of the Senate Budget Committee.[3]
