DETROIT – The Obama administration has found $100 million to send to struggling Detroit, despite recurring claims that the government cannot afford to make any more spending cuts.
House Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi claimed just last weekend that “there’s no more cuts to make.” Pelosi made the comments in response to Republicans demanding additional cuts in exchange for raising the debt ceiling.
“The cupboard is bare,” she told CNN.
Apparently not completely bare.
Gene Sperling, chief economic adviser to President Obama, told the Associated Press the administration scrounged through the federal budget and found untapped money that “either had not flowed or had not gotten out or not directed to the top priorities.”
That money is now being sent to Detroit.
