OMB Director Applauds House and Senate Committees’
Approval of 2010 Budget Resolutions

WASHINGTON, D.C--Following the approval of budget resolutions by the House and Senate Budget Committees, Peter R. Orszag, Director of the White House Office of Management and Budget, issued the following statement:

"We are very pleased that budget resolutions have been passed out of committee and soon will be considered by the full House and Senate.

"These resolutions contain the President’s four top budget priorities – health care reform; giving our children a world-class education; investments in clean energy and reducing our reliance on foreign oil; and cutting the deficit we inherited in half before the end of the President’s first term. This is a big victory for the future of our economy and our nation.

"The Congress now has before it a blueprint to rebuild our economy; invest in health care, education, and clean energy; and put our nation on a path of fiscal sustainability and prosperity. We look forward to working with both chambers to see the budget resolution’s swift passage in the days ahead."

SPB I was wondering how many Americans know the names of pass US Budget Directer? The 6th Beatle Peter is so clear in explaining his budget as I read his website. I liken it to reading that girls book Carry Bradshaw from the movie Sex in the city. Now he's is more clearer in explaining then my homey Tim Geithner.

Here's a question to my best bud Mr. Kitty. Name the last two US Budget Directers of the USA.
