Chairman Hal Rogers Floor Statement Supporting H.R. 933, the Full-Year Continuing Appropriations Act for Fiscal Year 2013

Remarks

Mr. Speaker, I rise to present H.R. 933, the Continuing Resolution to fund the federal government for the remainder of the fiscal year. This legislation provides funding for essential federal programs and services, helps maintain our national security, and takes a potential shutdown off the table.

The House passed a very similar version of this bill two weeks ago, and yesterday, the Senate passed their version of this legislation. Now, it is back before the House today for our final stamp of approval.

I'm sure I don't need to remind you of the deadline we face here: The existing Continuing Resolution expires next Wednesday, so it's vital that we get this bill to the President for his signature straight away.

The total funding provided in this bill remains at $984 billion, the level required by the President's sequestration order.

To summarize the contents of H.R 933 briefly:
