• House Approves Bill to Prevent Government Shutdown - February 29, 2024

• On Thursday, February 29, the House of Representatives approved a short-term spending bill that would extend Fiscal Year 2024 appropriations deadlines and stave off a partial government shutdown. The vote was 320-99 in favor of the bill. Funding for certain agencies, currently scheduled to expire tomorrow, would be extended to next week. The measure would extend funding for other agencies through March 22. The Senate is expected to move quickly on the bill.

  FMA joined other member organizations of the Federal-Postal Coalition on a letter to all Members of Congress this week, urging swift action to prevent a devastating government shutdown. We will continue to urge legislators to fully fund Fiscal Year 2024.
