Rep. Barry Moore opposes 45-day continuing resolution

Washington, D.C. — Rep. Barry Moore (AL-02) released the following statement after voting against a continuing resolution that would only fund the government for 45 days.

“House conservatives have already passed four appropriations bills that would fund 70 percent of the government, but Senate Majority Leader Schumer refuses to bring them to a vote," said Moore. "The last time we followed the law and passed all 12 bills was 26 years ago when our deficit was $22 billion. It's no coincidence our deficit has ballooned to more than $2 trillion since then. I am prepared to stay in Washington and work with my colleagues across the conference as long as it takes to advance all 12 bills and protect the American people from the status quo of out-of-control spending."
