Bice Supports Continuing Resolution to Fund the Government

September 1, 2026 Press Release Washington, D.C. - Today, Congresswoman Bice voted in support of a continuing resolution to fund the government through December 11, 2026. Importantly, this funding maintains Republican spending levels and includes priorities of the Trump Administration. Congresswoman Bice serves on the House Appropriations Committee, which successfully passed all twelve bills through regular order out of committee. In July, the House passed a continuing resolution to fully fund the government. The Senate recently amended the legislation forcing the House to pass it again before it can be signed into law by President Trump. Congresswoman Bice issued the following statement: “I am incredibly proud of the leadership of Chairman Tom Cole and the House Appropriations Committee, which successfully passed all twelve bills out of our committee. However, due to delays and disruption by Senate Democrats, a continuing resolution was needed to avoid another partisan, Democrat-driven government wide shutdown. This legislation is straightforward, continues responsible spending, and contains no poison pills, ensuring we put the American people ahead of politics.”
