Paul's alternative budget fails in Senate, 18-81

"It reforms and saves Social Security and Medicare, making them solvent for 75 years, it creates millions of jobs by letting taxpayers keep an additional $600 billion of their income, it repeals Obamacare, it requires Congress to vote to approve or disapprove all major regulations," Paul said of his budget on the Senate floor.

"Our ever-expanding debt is costing us millions of jobs a year. It's time to stop burying our kids in debt."

But Paul's plan was turned away in a 18-81 vote. Aside from Paul, other Republicans voting for Paul's plan were Sens.
