Ohio’s Kasich
Heading West to Push for Balanced-Budget Amendment
By Mark Niquette
Ohio Governor John Kasich is heading to Arizona and possibly Idaho this
week in a campaign to encourage states to seek a federal
balanced-budget amendment.
Kasich, a Republican who was the U.S. House of Representatives Budget
Committee chairman when the federal budget was balanced in 1997, said
he wants to encourage resolutions calling for a convention to consider
an amendment.
“This is not a complicated thing,” Kasich told reporters today in
Columbus. “If the government continues on this path of spending money
that they don’t have, over time, systems will melt down, people will be
hurt and our children will be put behind the eight ball.”
