Joint resolution on the economic dangers of federal debt and deficits
This Montana joint resolution expresses concern that federal debt and deficit spending are harming the state and nation, urging Congress to address these fiscal issues. The document highlights specific statistics about rising national debt, interest payments, and inflation, then calls for Congress to adopt disciplined fiscal rules like a balanced budget amendment and a gold-linked dollar. It also requests that other state legislatures send similar resolutions to Congress and directs copies to Montana's congressional delegation and state governors. This is a non-binding legislative statement rather than a law that changes policy directly.
