119th Congress

Washington, D.C.– While Democrats continue their theatrics, forcing government employees to work without pay for a full month and risking programs like SNAP and WIC, Republicans have been working hard to help the people impacted by this prolonged, unnecessary shutdown. Appropriators are having face-to-face conversations with constituents while Democrats are filming TikToks in the halls of the Capitol Building, hosting photoshoots on the plaza, and avoiding tough questions from their constituents who are hurt by their shutdown tactics. 

Washington, DC – Bipartisan majorities in both chambers of Congress have voted in support of a clean, nonpartisan CR to reopen the government and fund it through November 21, giving Appropriators time to continue the appropriations process and advance a first slate of full-year funding bills through the conference committee process. Senate Democrats continue to block that legislation, forcing federal employees to work without pay and limiting the services available to the American people.

Washington, D.C. – Following a week where Democrat leaders openly described the suffering of American families as “leverage,” the consequences of their irresponsible shutdown on the nation continue to grow. House Republican Appropriators Robert Aderholt, Mark Alford, and Riley Moore came together to underscore the reckless harm caused by radical Democrat obstruction, highlight progress towards regular order, and reaffirm their commitment to completing full-year appropriations.

Washington, D.C. – Agriculture Subcommittee Chairman Andy Harris (R-MD) joined Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) for his press briefing to discuss the damage happening across our nation while the painful and reversible Democrat shutdown rages on.
