House Freedom Caucus (HFC) members announced their conditions for supporting “a short-term extension of government funding through a Continuing Resolution (CR)” and vowed to oppose “any such measure that continues Democrats’ bloated COVID-era spending and simultaneously fails to force the Biden administration to follow the law and fulfill its most basic responsibilities.”
The 42-member HFC, which represents the most consistently conservative representatives in the lower chamber of Congress, described its conditions on the CR issue in an Aug. 21 statement.
