Tim Scott Votes to Pass Government Funding Bill, Urges House to Act Quickly | 2025-11-10 | 2025 | 2025-11 | Republican | Senate | SC | Tim Scott | S001184 | www.scott.senate.gov | timscott | https://www.scott.senate.gov/media-center/press-releases/jsf/jet-engine:press-list | scraper | WASHINGTON — Today, U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) voted for, and the Senate passed, a clean continuing resolution (CR) paired with three bipartisan, year-long appropriations bills. The CR will fund the federal government through Jan. 30, 2026. “After 41 days of a needless government shutdown, tonight enough Democrats finally joined Republicans in putting people before politics by voting to fund and reopen the government,” said Sen. Scott. “I urge my colleagues in the House to act quickly and pass this bipartisan funding package so hardworking Americans can get their paychecks and vulnerable South Carolinians who rely on SNAP and WIC can access essential programs.” Included in the funding package are the following three appropriations bills, which would provide funding and certainty for essential programs such as SNAP, WIC, and veterans services for the entire fiscal year: Agriculture, Rural Development, and Food and Drug Administration Appropriations Military Construction and Veterans Affairs Appropriations Legislative Branch Appropriations The measure is now headed to the U.S. House of Representatives for consideration.
