The legislation would continue federal funding through December 11, 2026, while Congress completes work on the full-year fiscal year 2027 appropriations bills. "Senate Democrats have refused to advance a single fiscal year 2027 appropriations bill, abandoning regular order and jeopardizing the funding process," said Rep. Walberg. "House Republicans will not allow the obstruction of Senate Democrats to trigger another government shutdown. This clean, short-term continuing resolution will keep the government open, providing stability for hardworking Michigan families while Congress continues to complete the appropriations process." Background House Republicans have advanced all 12 bills for fiscal year 2027 funding out of the House Appropriations Committee, including 3 that have passed the House with bipartisan support. However, Senate Democrats have refused to advance a single appropriations bill ahead of the September 30 funding deadline. | 1 | 2026-09-02T09:19:58Z | 2026-09-02T09:20:51Z |
