Sen. Tom Coburn : “ …the president has been very clear that he wants to see a balanced budget amendment Coburn : FEMA has $ 11.6 billion for assistance , more than enough to help tornado victims . But if FEMA fund runs out , Coburn will stick by policy to deny aid without cuts elsewhere . The Superstorm Sandy package , unfortunately , is another recent example . Coburn : I opposed Sandy aid package because it was an `` all-you-can-eat buffet ''
