A special holiday greeting for our service members and their families. Thank you for your service.

It was a chaotic final week of the 118th Congress. We narrowly averted a government shutdown at the hands of Elon Musk, Donald Trump, and House Republicans. Congress also passed my first standalone bill! Check out what you missed last week.

Weekly Newsletter, 12.23.24

The 118th Congress began with gridlock and chaos as House Republicans took a week to elect a speaker. It nearly ended the same way as House Republicans as a different speaker took us to the brink of a...

Good news! The Senate passed my bill to rename the Petersburg Post Office after John Mercer Langston, the first Black man to represent Virginia in Congress. This is my first standalone bill heading to the President's desk. Read my full statement. bit.ly/JMLPostOffice

With 6 hours to spare, House Democrats stood united to fund the government and avoid a shutdown, despite House Republicans’ brinksmanship. Read my full statement: bit.ly/Dec20CRVote

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 20(source)

It doesn’t have to be this way. We had a bipartisan deal to avoid a shutdown. Speaker Johnson should bring it to the floor for a vote today!

The Small Business Administration would stop processing small business loans, halting a program that provides $512,508,600 in funding to small businesses in Virginia every year.

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 20(source)

The Department of Agriculture would be forced to stop processing farm loans, which provide $67,563,000 in funding for farmers in Virginia every year.

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 20(source)

The Department of Agriculture would stop processing housing loans, which provide $646,724,633 in funding to help 3,311 families in rural Virginia communities buy homes every year.

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 20(source)

FDA workers would be sidelined, risking interruptions and delays to the over 200 food safety, pharmaceutical manufacturing, and other inspections conducted in Virginia each year.

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 20(source)

The nearly 50k people flying through Virginia airports every day could face delays and safety concerns due to staffing impacts on TSA agents and air traffic controllers.

Virginia’s 170k federal workers/contractors and 130k active duty service members could miss their next paycheck.

Thanks to House Republican shenanigans and Elon Musk, we are just 15 hours from a government shutdown. What would that mean for Virginia as we head into the holidays? 🧵

We have 15 hours to avoid a government shutdown and Speaker Johnson doesn’t have a plan after Elon Musk tanked a bipartisan deal and couldn’t get his billionaire giveaway bill passed. ⏰

It’s shutdown day. Johnson has a few options

This has been an absolutely disastrous week for Speaker Mike Johnson, President-elect Donald Trump and Republicans on Capitol Hill.

The Musk-Republican Billionaire Giveaway Bill fails 174 to 235. Read my full statement.

McClellan Statement on the Musk-Republican Billionaire Giveaway

Washington, D.C. – Today, Congresswoman Jennifer McClellan (VA-04) issued the following statement after House Republicans brought H.R. 10515 to the floor:

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 19(source)

Are we 40 hours away from Republicans shutting down the government? All signs point to yes…. Here’s the latest. ⏰

Where Johnson is. Where he might go. And can he survive?

Speaker Mike Johnson’s 1,547-page overstuffed CR officially died on Wednesday, less than a day after the congressional leadership posted it online.

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 19(source)

So... We are 2 days away from a government shutdown and here's where things stand: Negotiators reached a deal on a bipartisan funding bill last night. DOGE Bros had a fit. Trump ordered House Republicans to kill the bill and shut down the government. Bah, humbug....

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 18(source)

I sent letters to President Biden & the Dept. of Energy urging them to revisit whether additional LNG exports are in the public interest. Today’s Dept. of Energy report shows that increased LNG exports only benefit oil & gas executives while harming our economy and planet.

Rep. Jennifer McClellan@mcclellan.house.govDec 17(source)

As we race to the deadline for govenment funding this Friday, the House passed the FY25 NDAA and I introduced new legislation last week. See what else you missed in my latest newsletter. mcclellan.house.gov/media/newsle...

Weekly Newsletter, 12.17.24

We have reached the final vote week for the 118th Congress. Once again, we are racing against the clock to pass a funding bill and avoid a government shutdown before current funding expires Friday. Bu...
