INDIANA, (WOWO): This afternoon, U.S. Congressman Marlin Stutzman issued the following statement regarding his recent comments regarding the ongoing budget debate:

“Yesterday, I carelessly misrepresented the ongoing budget debate and Speaker Boehner’s work on behalf of the American people. Despite my remarks it’s clear that the American people want both parties to come to the table to reopen the government, tackle this nation’s debt crisis, and stop ObamaCare’s pain.”
