This bill, which enacts five full-year Fiscal Year 2026 appropriations bills previously passed by the House, is now on its way to President Trump\u2019s desk for a signature. Additionally, the package also includes a two-week continuing resolution for the Department of Homeland Security in order to give Congress and the White House more time to continue to negotiate on a final spending bill.\n\nAfter voting in favor of this legislation and ensuring the government functions, Congressman Cole released the following statement:\n\n\u201cMonths of bipartisan, bicameral work produced a final funding agreement, and the House stood by it. When that deal was altered at the last minute in the Senate and the government was disrupted, we didn\u2019t walk away. Instead, we stepped up again. That is what responsible governance looks like,\u201d said Congressman Cole.\n\n\u201cTherefore, today, we have once again strengthened national defense, supported education and health systems, modernized our transportation and infrastructure, supported small businesses, and reasserted diplomacy on the world stage. These are real outcomes for the American people \u2013 progress that keeps the nation moving and the government working,\u201d said Congressman Cole.\n\n\u201cWe have also ensured continuity for critical Homeland Security services, including support for the Coast Guard, FEMA, TSA, cybersecurity, and more. This path forward will allow the White House to continue good faith negotiations with Democrats \u2013 without jeopardizing the continuity of government operations,\u201d said Congressman Cole.\n\n\u201cWith President Trump\u2019s signature, more than 95 percent of the federal government will officially be funded through full-year appropriations. That is Article I responsibility put into action,\u201d said Congressman Cole.\n\n###", 1, "2026-04-04T05:28:40Z", "2026-04-04T05:30:10Z"]], "columns": ["url", "title", "date", "year", "month", "party", "chamber", "state", "member_name", "bioguide_id", "domain", "scraper", "source", "date_source", "text", "has_text", "collected_at", "updated_at"], "primary_keys": ["url"], "primary_key_values": ["https://cole.house.gov/media/press-releases/cole-re-votes-favor-five-full-year-funding-bills-restore-government-stability"], "units": {}, "query_ms": 0.8298989851027727, "source": "dwillis/congress-press", "source_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press", "license": "MIT", "license_url": "https://github.com/dwillis/congress-press/blob/main/LICENSE"}
