WASHINGTON --An influential Senate Republican is admonishing Homeland Security Department officials not to count on an increase in the agency's $32 billion budget.
"I don't think there's going to be more money," Senate Commerce Chairman Ted Stevens, R-Alaska, said Wednesday "In fact, I know there's not going to be more money. I would urge a review of your situation as to how to get the job done better with the money that's there now."
Stevens is the immediate past chairman of the Senate Appropriations Committee.
