House Returns to Address Government Funding Measure

Why it matters locally: As a federal funding measure, this legislation directly impacts all federal programs and services that operate within Delaware, including those related to infrastructure, education, and social services. A lapse in funding could disrupt these operations across the state.

Washington D.C. — The House of Representatives began a one-week session Monday with a bill to extend government funding at the top of its agenda. This legislative effort aims to continue federal operations beyond the upcoming midterm elections. Members of Congress will address the funding measure during their brief return to the Capitol. Following this session, legislators will again depart for a recess.
