Congresswoman Miller Statement on Passage of Government Spending and COVID-19 Stimulus Package
WASHINGTON, D.C. – Congresswoman Carol Miller (R-WV) today released the following statement regarding the passage of the bipartisan Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 in the House of Representatives:
"After months of negotiations, I am glad that Congress could come together to pass much needed COVID-19 relief and critical government funding," said Congresswoman Miller. "This package provides critical resources for increased access to vaccinations, small business loans, and direct payments to Americans. The legislation goes further to end surprise medical billing, provides permanent tax relief for families, and allows for more access and flexibility in rural hospitals and clinics. It is shameful that Washington Democrats stalled this package for months, but I am encouraged that we could finally provide this crucial funding to our communities."
