Horrible deal.
It claims to cut $23 billion over 10 years, with no real enforcement teeth for future congresses.
That's right, $2.3 billion each year, out of a $3.5 TRILLION (and growing) annual federal budget. That's not timid, that's cowardly.
It also ends the rather inconsequential sequester. It's well known that the democrats hate the sequester. But the dirty little secret is that the establishment neoconservative also GOP hates it, chiefly because it cuts into their favorite welfare program; military spending.
Bad as running the government for CR-to-CR is, this "deal" is even worse.
