Today’s continuing resolution will allow us to continue working on appropriations bills and responsibly fund the government,” said LaLota. “We must stop governing by continuing resolution, the American people deserve better. Let’s keep working, put up bills which can pass the House, and work with the Senate to reduce spending and keep our government open.” To read the full text of the legislation, click HERE. Background: LaLota introduced the Troops Before Politicians Act, which would prohibit members of Congress from receiving pay at any point our military is not receiving pay.

LaLota is a cosponsor of the Prevent Government Shutdowns Act, which would require that if appropriations work is not done on time, all Members of Congress must stay in Washington, DC, and work until the spending bills are completed. This will prevent a government-wide shutdown and continue critical services and operations for Americans.
