Congresswoman Gwen Moore Votes to Fund Government Through December 11th

Congresswoman Gwen Moore Votes to Fund Government Through December 11 th “Today’s legislation maintains funding for critical priorities that our communities depend on. I don’t need to remind anyone that during the last government shutdown, the Trump Administration weaponized SNAP, threatening hunger on vulnerable citizens, including my constituents. This bill would ensure that WIC funding can continue at the rate necessary to meet current needs and temporarily block a proposed OMB guidance on federal grants that will adversely impact TRIO, NIH, and thousands of federal grant programs across the government. That’s why today, I voted to pass this funding measure.” This temporary funding measure or Continuing Resolution (CR) is needed only because House and Senate Republicans have failed to pass any of the annual funding bills, refusing to negotiate any commonsense and reasonable agreements with Democrats. I urge my colleagues to work with us to finalize full year funding bills that helps support our communities, protects Congress’ power of the pursue, and excludes partisan poison pills.”
