 Nevada Senator Harry Reid spoke today regarding the defeat of HR1, Republicans' reckless spending plan.

"It would destroy 700,000 American jobs, weaken our border security and slash housing for homeless veterans," said Reid. "Now that it has been defeated, Republicans have no excuses left. It's time for them to work with us to on a responsible, long-term solution that funds our government for the rest of the year, makes responsible cuts and safeguards our fragile economic recovery."
