U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) has issued a statement explaining his vote against the Continuing Resolution (CR) intended to temporarily fund the government for the next three months.

"For the past four years, Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have treated the American taxpayers like their own personal ATM," said Senator Tuberville. "We are $35 trillion in debt and have very little to show for it. Rather than going through the appropriations process, Democrats are trying to ram another CR down our throats—setting us up for a massive omnibus at the end of the year. This is completely irresponsible and no way to govern, which is why I voted no. To save this country, we have to turn off the spending faucet in Washington and start putting American taxpayers first."

Senator Tuberville represents Alabama in the United States Senate and serves on several committees including Armed Services, Agriculture, Veterans’ Affairs, and HELP.
