2019: Fitzpatrick Voted For An Continuing Appropriations Bill For All
But Homeland Security That Would End That Partial Government Shutdown As
Well As Extend TANF Through The End Of FY 2020. In January 2019,
Fitzpatrick voted for a bill that, according to Congressional Quarterly,
"provide[d] $271.8 billion for full-year fiscal 2019 funding for six
of the seven spending bills that reached a conference agreement, but
that lack enacted appropriations (all except Homeland Security) and
would [have] extend[ed] authorization for several expiring programs
including the National Flood Insurance Program and the Temporary
Assistance for Needy Families." The vote was on a passage. The House
passed the bill by a vote of 234 to 180. [House Vote 49,
