In 60 Seconds, Michele Bachmann Reveals the Most Consequential Vote of Her Time in Congress

Melissa Quinn •   December 12, 2014

After eight years in the House of Representatives, the “most consequential” vote of Minnesota Rep. Michele Bachmann’s career turned out to be the last one she cast.

“What we saw last night was a denial of our Constitution,” @MicheleBachmann on the #CRomnibus

Speaking with CNN’s Wolf Blitzer today, Bachmann, a Republican, reflected on her six terms in the lower chamber and said her vote against the $1.1 trillion government spending bill bared the most weight.

“What we saw last night was a denial of our Constitution because our president acted outside the limitations under Article 2,” she told Blitzer. “This was the political establishment on both sides of the aisle.”

The so-called “CRomnibus,” a continuing resolution and omnibus spending bill, passed 219 to 206 yesterday. It funds 11 agencies through September 2015 and the Department of Homeland Security through Feb. 27.
