SANFORD STATEMENT ON HURRICANE MATTHEW
CHARLESTON, SC Today, Representative Mark Sanford issued the following statement on Hurricane Matthew and Governor Haley’s orders for residents to evacuate:
Last week, the House voted on H.R. 3537, a bill that would add 22 different drugs to the highest legal level of drug enforcement, called Schedule I. The bill passed 258 to 101, and I was among those who voted no. Let me explain a few reasons why.
On Wednesday night, we voted on a short-term spending bill, called a Continuing Resolution (CR), that will fund government through December 8th. In essence, a CR takes what we spent last year and authorizes spending at the same monthly rate for as long as the resolution lasts - in this case, just over 2 months. The bill passed 342 to 85, and I voted no.
Last night, the House passed the Water Resources Development Act of 2016 by a vote of 399 to 25, and I voted in favor of it. After the vote, I posted on an amendment to the bill that I didn’t like that ultimately will provide $170 million in funding to Flint, Michigan, but I said I get back on the full bill...so here I am.
