Joyce Supports FY 27 Continuing Resolution Set to Become Law

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Congressman Dave Joyce (OH-14) released the following statement after voting in favor of the Continuing Appropriations Act, 2027, a short-term funding measure that will keep the federal government open and operating through December 11, 2026. This legislation, which passed both the House and the Senate, now heads to President Trump’s desk to be signed into law.

“The continuing resolution passed by the House today is a necessary step to keep the government open past the end of the fiscal year on September 30 and give Congress additional time to advance the Fiscal Year 2027 appropriations process. We have made significant progress on full-year funding bills, and we must continue that work while ensuring there is no lapse in appropriations.”

“The House Appropriations Committee has delivered on its responsibility by advancing all twelve appropriations bills out of committee. Now, it is up to both chambers to build on that work. Congress has a responsibility to keep the government open and provide certainty for our communities, our service members, and the federal workforce, while ensuring taxpayer dollars are spent responsibly. I am committed to working with my colleagues to move this process forward and pass full-year spending bills that meet the needs of the American people.”
