Ciscomani Issues Statement on House Passage of H.R. 9747, the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025

WASHINGTON - U.S. Congressman Juan Ciscomani (AZ-06), a member of the House Appropriations Committee, issued the following statement after voting for H.R. 9747, the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025 to keep the government funded and working for the American people:

“As a member of the House Appropriations Committee, I am committed to pursuing common sense solutions on the issues affecting our nation and delivering tangible results for my district,” said Ciscomani. “A government shutdown is bad policy that hurts my constituents, disrupts the functioning of critical federal agencies, like the Department of Veterans Affairs, and would harm our federal employees, including members of the Armed Forces, CBP Agents, postal workers, air traffic control, and others who would be furloughed or have their pay delayed. The American people should not be made to suffer for Washington’s dysfunction. While this legislation isn’t perfect, it accomplishes the goal of keeping the government open and working.  However, this is only a temporary solution and we still have major work to do on the budget before the end of the year.”
