1,665 Pages: GOP Spending Bill Longer Than Obama’s Stimulus – By Terence P. Jeffrey | May 1, 2017
The new federal spending bill proposed in the Republican-controlled Congress to fund the government through the end of September–which is now posted on the House Rules Committee website–is 1,665 pages long and includes an average of approximately 210 words per page.
