Garbarino Votes For The American Relief Act

WASHINGTON, D.C.  - Tonight, the House of Representatives passed H.R.10545, the American Relief Act of 2025 which would extend government funding through March 14th, 2025. Congressman Andrew R. Garbarino (R-NY-02) released the following statement: 

“A government shutdown is bad for the American people, plain and simple. While I am frustrated by the absence of 9/11 health funding and other important provisions that were included in the initial CR, I voted for the final package to keep the government open for the next three months, prevent a lapse in government resources, and ensure that our troops, border patrol agents, and tens of thousands of federal employees living on Long Island would not have to go without pay over the holidays. There continues to be widespread bipartisan and bicameral support for preventing impending cuts to the World Trade Center Health Program, and I remain confident in our ability to secure a path forward in the next Congress.”
