WASHINGTON, DC - Congressman Scott Fitzgerald (WI-05) issued the following statement after voting to pass the Senate Amendment to H.R. 6500 - Continuing Appropriations Act, 2027.
"Keeping the government open is the responsible thing to do," said Congressman Fitzgerald. "This legislation keeps the government funded through December 11, 2026, ensures critical services continue, provides certainty for our military, and supports our national security priorities. I voted to keep the government open and avoid another reckless shutdown while we work to complete the appropriations process here in the House."
