Newsmakers: Rep. Paul Ryan

U. S. Congressman Paul Ryan (R)- 1st District, a Janesville Republican, said 2009 was the most frustrating of his 12 years in the U.S. House. Democratic leaders are not only ignoring a $38-trillion long-term deficit in the Medicare program, and a $7-trillion deficit in Social Security, but are increasing spending in ways that risk sending the national economy off a “tipping point” cliff, Ryan warned. The health-care bill that Democrats are likely to push through Congress this spring will only make the deficit problem worse, he added.
