Markey | M000133 | www.markey.senate.gov | markey | https://www.markey.senate.gov/news/press-releases | scraper | Washington (August 8, 2026) – Senator Edward J. Markey (D-Mass.) released the following statement after voting against the Continuing Resolution to fund Trump’s administration. “Voting for this Continuing Resolution would be signing a check for President Trump to continue his illegal, reckless agenda, including ICE raids, an unwinnable war in Iran, threats to interfere in our elections this fall, and the dismantling of the social safety net. I will not give a nickel to an authoritarian who is handing over our government to billionaire and corporate interests that have raised the cost of living so high that human rights become commodities that working families cannot afford. I’m proud to have voted against more of Donald Trump’s nominees and agenda than any other Senator, and I won’t stop fighting him with every tool there is.” ### | 1 | 2026-08-09T05:47:57Z | 2026-08-09T05:49:40Z |
