Statement

Date: Feb. 27, 2015
Location: Washington, DC
Issues: Government Budget and Spending

Congressman Ben Ray Luján of New Mexico's Third District released the following statement tonight after voting for a bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security for seven days.

"By passing a seven-day funding bill tonight, we are laying the foundation to bring up a full-year funding bill next week rather than prolonging it for three weeks. Tonight's vote assures us that we will vote for full funding next week and put House Republicans' irresponsible manufactured political crisis to an end."
