SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO AM) - President Obama and Congressional Republicans see a need to increase defense spending, upgrade a crumbling infrastructure and fix corporate taxes.
But Congresswoman Kristi Noem calls Obama’s budget a political document.
Noem says while corporate taxes are important, the effort to revamp the system should extend to hard-working taxpayers. She says trade agreements should be approved and signed to make oversea's markets available to U.S. marketers.
Noem is a member of the House Ways and Means Committee which is holding its first hearing on the budget today.
Noem spoke about the $4 trillion dollar budget on FOX this morning.
