Statement from Sen. Bill Nelson on president's budget

Following is a statement from U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson (D-FL) on the president’s budget released today:
“This plan doesn’t make any sense. You’re going to cut some of our most important agencies such as the National Institutes of Health, which is working to find cures for cancer and Alzheimer’s, the Environmental Protection Agency, which keeps our air and water clean, and the Army Corps of Engineers, which is working to restore the Everglades. I agree that we must do whatever is necessary to keep our country safe, but cutting all of these important programs to pay for things, such as a wall, just doesn’t make any sense.”
