Quiver AI Summary
Peters on funding bill: Rep. Scott Peters said he supported a House-passed continuing resolution to keep the federal government open through Dec. 11, 2026, warning that without action the government faced a shutdown on Sept. 30. He described the measure as a short-term fix, while saying it would help avoid harm to workers.
Concerns and priorities: Peters said he favored changes in this version of the bill, including limits on what he called a loophole affecting Border Patrol funding and new guardrails on federal grantmaking. He said those protections matter for San Diego, which he said depends on federal grants for biotech, housing, military and transportation.
Longer-term proposal: The statement also said Peters wants Congress to move away from stopgap bills and instead pass full annual budgets on time. It noted his support for broader budgeting changes, including a two-year budget framework, an automatic continuing resolution proposal, and a measure to withhold congressional pay if budgets are not approved on time.
