Feenstra Votes to Pay Troops, Fund Border Patrol, Support Seniors, and Avert Government Shutdown

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, U.S. Rep. Randy Feenstra (R-Hull) issued the following statement after voting for legislation to avoid a government shutdown and continue negotiations over appropriations:

“The American people are fed up with the dysfunction in Congress and expect us to deliver real results. That’s why I voted to ensure that our troops and border patrol agents receive their full pay, our seniors receive their Social Security checks, our veterans receive the quality healthcare they have earned, and our government remains operational. This legislation provides us the necessary time to curb President Biden’s wasteful spending policies through a transparent and fiscally sound appropriations process. We must now continue our important work to secure our border, reduce reckless government spending, and honor our Commitment to America.”
