Amodei Statement on Senate Revised Rescissions Package

Washington, D.C. – Today, Rep. Mark Amodei issued the following statement after voting to approve the $9 billion rescissions request sent to Congress by the Trump Administration: 

"The rescission package passed this morning does not take away any funding for the remainder of Fiscal Year 2025, and we will have at least three more opportunities — through the Appropriations Committee markup process, voting on the House floor, and conferencing with the Senate — to ensure that local broadcasting is still supported in FY26," said Rep. Mark Amodei. "Additionally, should Congress not pass FY26 appropriations before October 1, current FY25 levels will be maintained through a continuing resolution."

"We still have a long road ahead of us before the start of the next fiscal year, and I will continue to fight for our local broadcasters in the months ahead."
