"Mr. Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 4378 – a continuing resolution that will fund the government through November 21st.
"It is unfortunate that we are in this situation and have to pass this CR to keep the government open, but we cannot afford an unnecessary and costly shutdown.
"Because the budget agreement did not get enacted until August, the Senate just began working on the FY20 appropriations bills last week.
"As a result, there is simply not enough time to complete the appropriations process by the September 30th deadline.
WASHINGTON – Today, top Appropriations Committee Republican Kay Granger (R-TX) delivered the following remarks on H.R. 2740, a four-bill appropriations package.
Mister Speaker, I rise today in opposition to H.R. 2740.
The Appropriations Committee has held more than 120 hearings this year on topics ranging from our nation's defense priorities to the crisis of unaccompanied children coming to the southern border.
We have now marked up all twelve of the bills in Subcommittee and Full Committee.
Unfortunately, each bill brought before the Committee was written to an unrealistic topline funding number - $176 billion above current budget caps.
We still do not have consensus on a budget agreement for fiscal year 2020, which could lead to sequestration, resulting in devastating cuts to our military.
WASHINGTON – Today, top Appropriations Committee Republican Kay Granger (R-TX) delivered the following remarks on H.R. 2157, the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2019.
Madam Speaker, I rise today on H.R. 2157, the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2019.
This bill is similar to the disaster supplemental that passed the House in January. We have been waiting for the Senate to act on their version of the supplemental for several months.
During the four months since the House passed a bill, additional areas have been affected by natural disasters.
We know that the need is great, but taking up a disaster bill for the second time without addressing the Administration's concerns unfortunately will not increase its chance of becoming law.
There is a lot to praise in this bill. It will provide critical resources to communities struggling to recover from hurricanes, wildfires, flooding and tornadoes.
