THE DAILY QUOTE
“Before Congress can reach a bipartisan spending deal, it must resolve the fate of what's come to be known as the ‘parity principle.’ Ever since lawmakers imposed caps on spending under a 2011 deficit-cutting law, they have crafted bipartisan deals to raise those caps under a ‘parity principle’ that increased discretionary spending on defense and non-defense programs in equal amounts. But the unwillingness of Republicans to follow that principle again… have stymied work on a new spending deal for months and brought the appropriations process to a halt.” - CQ, 1/9/2018
