The funding bill was a long shot, but far-right U.S. representatives said it didn’t go far enough in promoting their priorities, including border security and defunding investigations into Donald Trump.
The legislation could have kept the government open for another 30 days to allow Congress to finish passing appropriations legislation for the fiscal year that begins Sunday. It also would have slashed funding for a large share of federal programs by 30 percent and added border hardening measures that Republicans have long sought.
The Texans were among 21 far-right Republicans who voted against the bill Friday. All Democrats also opposed the measure, which was rejected on a 198-232 vote. “Unfortunately, some Republicans sided with Democrats today NOT to fund government and secure our border,” U.S. Rep., R-Edinburg, posted on social media. “Most of us come here to work, but some come here for other reasons.”
