After House passage of legislation to fund CHIP for six years and reopen the government, Congressman Huizenga released the following statement:
This agreement is exactly the same deal that was offered last Friday but Democrats in the Senate chose to needlessly shut down the government. While I am glad CHIP has been funded for the next six years, it's time we move beyond these short term extensions, properly fund the government, and provide our men and women in uniform with the resources they need to complete their mission.
Prior to the vote, Congressman Huizenga provided an update via Facebook Live regarding the needless shutdown created by Senate Democrats. To watch the video, click play on the image below.
