From a letter sent June 13, 2009.
To Congress,
The administration is now considering not using the facts and figures provided by the Congressional Budget Office. For almost 35 years the CBO has provided objective, nonpartisan analysis on the economic ramifications of pending legislation and their effect on the national debt. Apparently the administration no longer appreciates or agrees with the CBO's analysis. They like their own rosier estimates instead.
If the estimates of the nonpartisan CBO are ignored, then Congress will be basing its decisions on partisan inaccurate information. Good decisions can not be made using bad facts. Congress needs to make its decisions based on the honest estimates that are provided by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office.
Signed,
The Electorate
