Ted Budd Votes No on Omnibus/COVID Spending Bill f t # e Washington, December 21, 2020 Washington, D.C. -- Rep. Ted Budd (R-NC) released the following statement after voting against the Omnibus/COVID spending bill: I wish I could have voted for a targeted COVID relief bill several months ago. We need to end economic lockdowns and support small businesses and their workers. But this package is a classic Washington shakedown game, and I'm not playing it. Instead of going through the normal legislative process to pass a targeted COVID relief package, a handful of Congressional leaders emerged from their backroom with a trillion-dollar package that had to be attached to another multi-trillion-dollar spending bill in order to pass. There was no real debate, no amendments, and no time to comprehend a 5,593-page spending package that represents one of the largest spending bills in U.S. history. That's no way to run our government. f t # e | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
