WASHINGTON, D.C – Today, the House of Representatives passed a stopgap measure, known as a Continuing Resolution, to push government funding deadlines to March 8th and March 22nd.
Expressing his concerns over the Continuing Resolution, Congressman Alex X. Mooney, who voted against the measure, stated, “I have warned that Congress would continue to kick the can down the road until a massive, bloated funding deal could be reached. And here we are. We should be working around the clock to end President Biden’s dangerous open border policies and weaponization of the Department of Justice.”
The Continuing Resolution passed by the House aims to provide temporary funding for the government and postpone critical deadlines. However, some members of Congress, like Congressman Mooney, believe that more urgent action is needed to address certain policy issues.
As debates continue in Congress regarding government funding and policy priorities, Congressman Mooney's concerns highlight the ongoing divisions and disagreements within the political landscape.
