With government funding running out September 30th, Speaker Johnson and House Republicans wasted the last two weeks on hyper-partisan messaging bills that they know will never pass the Senate.

July was a busy month in Washington and the District as we prepared to enter the August recess. As outlined below, we are in the midst of the appropriations process and House Republicans continue pushing their extreme agenda and baseless political games by holding Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress and attacking Vice President Kamala Harris.
I hope you had an enjoyable Fourth of July weekend with your friends and family.

Last week, the House considered the Fiscal Year 2025 National Defense Authorization Act (FY25 NDAA) on the floor and a baseless resolution to hold Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt of Congress. We also took some time for partisan competition for fun and a good cause with the annual Congressional Baseball Game for Charity.
As I return to Washington this week, I would like to thank everyone who reached out to express their condolences to our family on the passing of my mother, Lois D. McClellan, and brother-in-law, Gregory M. Beckwith.
The House returns to Washington today for a short and busy week before the Memorial Day recess. The House Armed Services Committee is preparing to take up the Fiscal Year 2025 National Defense Authorization Act (FY25 NDAA), the annual bill to fund the Department of Defense and our Armed Forces.
Congress entered May with a lot of work to do, needing to pass the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Authorization Act, a new Farm Bill, and the Fiscal Year 2025 (FY25) National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), and FY25 appropriations bills by September 30th.
After months of infighting and delay, the House finally passed a national security supplemental aid package to support our global allies, partners, and innocent civilians impacted by international conflicts around the world.
