Horn Votes to Fund Government, Extend Health Programs | 2019-11-19 | 2019 | 2019-11 | Democrat | House | OK | Kendra Horn | H001083 | horn.house.gov | legacy | WASHINGTON D.C. On Tuesday, Congresswoman Kendra Horn (OK-5) voted for a continuing resolution (CR) that will fund the government through December 20. The CR also extends funding for Community Health Centers, Certified Community Behavioral Health Clinics, health care workforce training, and other health care programs serving Oklahoma. The CR codifies the 3.1% pay raise for the Armed Forces that Congresswoman Horn worked to pass as a member of the House Armed Services Committee. One of my top priorities is fighting to make sure Oklahomans have affordable access to health care, said Congresswoman Horn. While today's legislation is not perfect, it does provide critical funding for community health centers and clinics to keep their doors open. I have urged congressional leadership to pass a full budget funding the government and providing our businesses and health care providers with the certainty they need. Finding common ground takes hard work, and over the coming weeks, I will continue to push leadership on both sides of the aisle to pass long-term funding legislation rather than more short-term stop-gap measures. It is time for Congress to do its job and fund the government. Oklahoma's 5th District is home to two Community Health Centers, over a dozen clinics, and three Community Behavioral Health Clinics that would be impacted by a funding shortfall if today's continuing resolution is not signed into law. The CR now heads to the Senate for consideration, where it will need to pass before government funding runs out on November 21. On Thursday, November 14, Congresswoman Horn sent a letter to Democratic and Republican leadership in Congress urging passage of long-term spending legislation rather than another short-term CR. Today's bill marks the second continuing resolution to take effect since the fiscal year began on October 1. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
