Vote Yes on this bill if you want to prevent a government shutdown, avoid many federal worker furloughs, keep transportation, disaster, housing, nutrition, cybersecurity, and veterans’ programs operating, and preserve short-term stability while Congress finishes longer-term funding bills.

Organizations that support this bill may include veterans’ groups, federal employee unions, transportation and infrastructure groups, anti-hunger and housing advocates, disaster relief organizations, and business trade groups that favor keeping government services and trade programs running without interruption.

Vote No on this bill if you want to reject another short-term funding patch, press Congress to pass full-year budgets instead, oppose extending trade and federal program authorities, or push for sharper spending cuts and policy changes before approving more funding.

Organizations that oppose this bill may include fiscal watchdog groups, anti-spending organizations, and advocates who object to short-term stopgap budgets, continued defense spending, or extending federal programs without deeper reforms or full-year appropriations.
