On December 19, 2024, Congressman Derrick Van Orden from Wisconsin's 3rd District expressed his support for the American Relief Act of 2025. In a statement issued from Washington, D.C., Van Orden highlighted key aspects of the bill and its significance.
Van Orden stated, "It is a Christmas miracle that Congress finally did its job." He emphasized that the bill ensures there will be no pay raise for Congress members. The legislation aims to benefit both the general American public and farmers by keeping the government operational, supporting agricultural activities, and providing disaster relief to affected states.
He further remarked on the potential consequences if the bill does not pass: "If this bill does not pass, the government shutdown will be directly on the shoulders of the Democrat party who chose to put politics over hungry children and Americans most in need."
The statement underscores Van Orden's stance on maintaining government functionality and prioritizing aid for those in need.
