Brenda Lawrence (MI-14) released the following statement after voting no on H.J.Res. 123, the Continuing Appropriations Act that would delay funding for the government two additional weeks through December 22, 2017. “Today, just one day before the current Continuing Resolution is to expire, Republicans have voted to continue their partisan agenda to cut taxes for the most wealthy at the expense of America’s middle class. We are now closer to the threat of a government shutdown because once again, partisan politics have surpassed public priorities. “After 8 months of failed attempts and time running out on funding the government, Republicans continue to push for more time to complete their scam tax bill. Rather than focus on real issues such as securing CHIP funding or addressing budget caps, the Republicans are fixated on giving tax breaks to corporations and the wealthy. The American people should not have to suffer because of Republican’s failure to act, failure to compromise, and failure to keep their promises. ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
