Federal programs important to the waterways industry will be funded through mid-January under an unusual two-step continuing resolution (CR) overwhelmingly approved by both houses of Congress. Passed by bipartisan votes of 87 to 11 in the Senate and 336 to 95 in the House, H.R. 6363 went to President Joe Biden to be signed into law. In addition to avoiding a government shutdown, the CR provides funding through January 19 for Energy and Water programs, including the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; Transportation and Housing, including the Maritime Administration; Agriculture and Military Construction; and Veterans Affairs. |
