We are going to spend whatever Congress has approved to be spent


Unless Congress has approved a balanced budget, some portion of what Congress approved to spend will be funded by new debt. If you don’t want to add new debt, don’t approve as much funding. But once it’s approved, and once it’s been spent, and the bills come in to pay, you have to pay them.
