This is not the way to govern. Extending the current spending levels is better than a government shutdown, but it is still bad policy because it damages our national security and wastes taxpayer dollars. For the sake of our troops and our military readiness, I hope my colleagues will not allow any further delays in approving long-term government funding. Wicker recently spoke on the Senate floor on the damage and waste caused by continuing resolutions. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
