Put all unnecessary tax-payer trips on hold until sequestration and the budget are resolved.

Created by L.E. on June 19, 2013

With the increased amount of budget cuts affecting more important government agencies, multiple trips around the world at the tax-payer's expense should be placed on hold. Sending the first family to foreign countries while most agencies are finding ways to conserve funds for employees is not only reckless but irresponsible for someone aiming to set an example. Regardless if the trip is to improve future relations or just a tourism opportunity, these trips should be foregone to prevent further wasteful spending.
