Congressman Moolenaar supports funding for DHS: On March 26, 2026, Congressman John Moolenaar voted for H.R. 8029, the Pay Our Homeland Defenders Act, amidst a prolonged partial government shutdown affecting the Department of Homeland Security.

Legislative challenges highlighted: Moolenaar criticized Democratic colleagues for opposing several funding measures to support DHS. He stated, "It's long past due for Democrats to compromise on their demands."
