“Convergence applauds the bipartisan lawmakers who passed, in the House, the Fiscal State of the Nation Resolution, which requires Congress to give all Americans a regular window into America’s fiscal health. This resolution’s bipartisan history includes unanimous passage of the proposal by the Select Committee on the Modernization of Congress, as well as an earlier, similar proposal made by consensus of the cross-partisan participants of the Convergence Dialogue on Building a Better Budget Process. So, the Senate has very good reason to give this resolution careful, bipartisan consideration.” says Convergence CEO, David Eisner.
