WASHINGTON (CNNMoney) — House Republicans on Thursday continued on their mission to cut billions of dollars from the current year’s budget.

“When we say we are going to cut spending, read my lips: We are going to cut spending,” said House Speaker John Boehner on Thursday.

He added that the House wouldn’t pass a budget that doesn’t cut spending, fueling new speculation of a possible government shutdown when current stop-gap funding measures run out March 4.
