Ricketts Statement on Government Funding Vote

WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, U.S. Senator Pete Ricketts (R-NE) issued the following statement after voting against another bloated government spending bill:

“This Continuing Resolution continues a broken process. It extends the Biden-Harris administration’s reckless spending. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer should be embarrassed that he refused to call for even a single vote on an appropriations bill before yet another shutdown faceoff. We must return to regular order and get this runaway spending under control.”
