Publicly support the passage and enactment of legislation requiring a balanced budget for the U.S. federal government. Every state other than Vermont has a balanced budget provision. 32 state legislatures have already requested such a federal provision.
Prohibit exemptions to balancing the budget. This is in accordance with the vision of our country's founders, notably Thomas Jefferson. Balanced Budget Amendment proposals often contain an exemption for emergencies such as being in the state of war. It could be envisioned that the Congress would simply declare the country in a perpetual state of war, year after year, just to avoid the necessity of politically costly spending cuts or tax increases
