SUMMARY: President Biden signs Continuing Resolution (CR) that funds the
government through November 17.
Following House and Senate passage, President Biden signed the Continuing Resolution
(CR) to fund agencies at current FY 2023 levels through November 17, 2023.
I am sure you join me in breathing a collective sigh of relief. Avoiding this shutdown
would not have been possible without your efforts to engage members, family and friends in
NTEU’s grassroots efforts to urge Congress to do their job and fund federal agencies and
programs. We know that federal employees deserve to be treated with dignity and respect and
not as political pawns. Working together we were able to put pressure on Congress to stop the
shutdown.
Although a shutdown was avoided today, we must remain engaged in this fight as work
continues on Capitol Hill to fund appropriate and full-year agency funding for the remainder of
FY 2024 before the CR expires in mid-November. I will keep you updated on any developments.
