END GOVT. SHUTDOWN

Sponsored By: Kam Buckner (Democratic)

In Committee

Summary

Affirms that no one wins when the federal government shuts down. Urges Congress to maintain continuous federal operations through timely appropriations or continuing resolutions, to reject shutdowns as a negotiating tactic, and to provide predictable funding that protects families, workers, and the broader economy. Reaffirms a bipartisan commitment to stability and problem-solving and to stand ready to work with Illinois's Congressional Delegation, Democrats and Republicans alike, to keep government functioning and focused on the people we serve.
