Murphy Applauds House Passage of Government Funding Package

Washington, D.C. — Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D., voted in favor of H.R. 5371, the Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2026, to fund the federal government.

"The House has successfully voted to keep the government running and deliver on our agenda to put the American people first," said Congressman Greg Murphy, M.D. "In a perfect world, I do not support funding our government through continuing resolutions. However, Democrat obstruction has prevented Congress from passing appropriations bills under regular order as our Founding Fathers intended. Folks are tired of the partisan games that consume Washington and want our leaders to work together to meaningfully improve the lives of our constituents. Unfortunately, Democratic Minority Leader Chuck Schumer wants to shut down the government to appease the far-left voices in his party, even if it hurts the American people. If Schumer and the Progressive Left want to shut down the government, it is solely on them. I supported the clean, bipartisan package to keep the government open and avert a harmful shutdown."
