Tenn. Rep. Chuck Fleischmann says cutting all discretionary spending won't balance the budget due to mandatory expenses.
Rep. Chuck Fleischmann, a Tennessee Republican, told Newsmax that eliminating all discretionary spending, which makes up about 25% of the federal budget, would not balance the budget.
The remaining 75% is mandatory spending that automatically recurs without annual approval.
Fleischmann noted that Congress has not effectively communicated where federal spending is directed to the public.
