Hudson Votes Against Short-Term Spending Bill
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today U.S. Representative Richard Hudson (NC-08), Fort Bragg’s Congressman and an outspoken advocate for North Carolina's military community, released the following statement after voting against a short-term continuing resolution that will extend government funding at current levels until December 20, 2019 and continues to provide a cloud of uncertainty for our military:
“When Washington kicks the can down the road, our troops and their families suffer the most,” said Rep. Hudson. “The men and women at Fort Bragg who I represent are the tip of the spear, and they must be given the resources they need to fight and win. Today’s measure fails to provide our service members the support and long-term budget certainty they deserve.”
