During the first month he is in office, Senator-elect Rand Paul plans to present a balanced budget proposal.
"People have looked at the numbers for a long time," Paul told The Associated Press in an interview this week. "It's not like I'm going to go up there and start with absolutely no information. We're already talking to different people from the think tanks and have been for sometime trying to come up with proposals."
"I think there's never been a time in our history when the American public was more ready to hear about how we fix the system," Paul said.
According to AP,Paul said he also has had a cordial conversation with President Barack Obama, who called him at his medical clinic in November.
Paul will be sworn in on January 5, 2011.
He's apparently careful with the budget in his personal life also. When in D.C., he will be staying at his father's condominium in Virginia.
