WASHINGTON – Rep. Shomari C. Figures (AL-02) issued the following statement today after voting against the House Republicans’ FY2025 budget resolution:
“The House Republicans’ budget sends a clear message to hardworking Americans: we do not care about you or your family. I voted against this bill because I cannot support a budget that adds nearly $2 trillion to the national deficit while cutting critical programs like Medicaid and SNAP that is a lifeline for millions of Americans.
