Remarks
WASHINGTON – Today, top Appropriations Committee Republican Kay Granger (R-TX) delivered the following remarks on H.R. 4378, a short-term continuing resolution that continues funding for military and civilian government programs through November 21st.

"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.

Remarks

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.

Remarks
WASHINGTON – Today, top Appropriations Committee Republican Kay Granger (R-TX) delivered the following remarks on Senate-amended H.R. 2157, the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2019.
Mister Speaker, I rise today in support of H.R. 2157, the Supplemental Appropriations Act of 2019.
This bill provides much-needed relief to more than 40 states and territories to help them recover from devastating hurricanes, wildfires, flooding, and tornadoes.
The bill provides critical aid to farmers and ranchers across the country.
From the Category 5 hurricane that destroyed crops in the Southeast to the historic floods of farmland in the Midwest and fires in the West, billions of dollars of damage has occurred.
The funds in this bill will help restore the livelihoods of our agricultural producers and rural communities.
