Calvert Supports Bill Setting the Stage to Confront Obama on Illegal Immigration | 2014-12-11 | 2014 | 2014-12 | Republican | House | CA | Ken Calvert | C000059 | calvert.house.gov | legacy | Today, Congressman Ken Calvert (CA-42) voted along with a majority of the House in support of the Fiscal Year 2015 Omnibus Appropriations bill. The bill will fund every federal agency through the end of the Fiscal Year 2015, except the Department of Homeland Security, which is funded under a temporary "Continuing Resolution" mechanism that expires on February 27, 2015. "The bill approved by the House today prevents a government shutdown and sets the stage for Republicans to confront President Obama's unilateral executive action on illegal immigration," said Rep. Calvert. "The bill limits funding for Homeland Security and our immigration enforcement agencies until the end of February. Meanwhile, as I have done in the past, I will be urging my colleagues to enact legislation that strengthens the security of our border and makes the use of E-Verify mandatory. With the majority in the House and Senate next Congress, Republicans will directly challenge President Obama's unilateral approach to immigration reform." ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
