WASHINGTON, D.C. - Rep. French Hill (AR-02) today released the following statement after the House passed H.R. 9747, Continuing Appropriations and Extensions Act, 2025, which continues government funding at current levels through December 20, 2024.

“A government shutdown helps no one and is more costly. I supported today's continuing resolution because we must keep the government open to finish our work in passing the remaining appropriations bills, protect our national security, and ensure there are no harmful disruptions to crucial programs Americans rely on. As I have said repeatedly, our appropriations process is broken and must be fixed. We need serious reforms to ensure our long-term fiscal stability and resilience.”
