Why we checked itSpecific dollar figures claimed for a bipartisan budget cut Rogers says he achieved as chairman of the House Intelligence Committee — verifiable against congressional budget records
What we foundThe $78.5 billion budget figure is real and matches the Michigan House Republican proposal, but the claimed $11 billion cut is not supported by reporting or official sources, which consistently describe the reduction as roughly $4–6 billion from the prior year's enacted budget.
