The measure passed 219-206. Congressman John K. Delaney (MD-6) issues the following statement: “The bill before us isn’t perfect. It is, however, a constructive compromise that is the product of a negotiation with each side at the table, House and Senate, Democrats and Republicans. “This bill includes important provisions such as increased funding for the Department of Veterans Affairs, a military pay raise, support for much needed infrastructure projects, expanded funding for child care and special education grants, more resources for the FBI and much needed emergency funding to combat Ebola. “We have an obligation to legislate and to govern. I support keeping the government open, which means we keep paying our troops at Fort Detrick, we keep disease researchers at NIH and scientists and engineers at NIST on the job, and that we keep air traffic control towers in Hagerstown and Frederick open, to name just a few examples. I don’t agree with everything in this bill but, on balance, I believe that it is better for Maryland than the alternative.” ## | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
