Washington, D.C. – Congresswoman Elise Stefanik today voted against Pelosi’s continuing resolution:
“Today, I stood up against Far Left priorities that have failed hardworking families in New York’s 21st District. House Democrats have spent the past two years ramming through trillions of dollars in partisan spending and increasing taxes to advance Joe Biden’s radical agenda, and now they want to continue this pattern of reckless spending on provisions that will exacerbate the border crisis by providing $1.8 billion for illegal immigrants but zero dollars to secure the border, while also funding Joe Biden’s army of IRS agents, which will be unleashed on hardworking, middle-class Americans. While I work every year throughout the appropriations process to ensure New York’s 21st District has a seat at the highest levels, I have a responsibility to hardworking taxpayers in my district and cannot give Lame Duck Speaker Nancy Pelosi the ability to harm families in Upstate New York and the North Country and push through more reckless spending during an unaccountable Congress this December.”
