 STATEMENT ON H.R. 3082, MAKING FURTHER CONTINUING APPROPRIATIONS FOR 
                            FISCAL YEAR 2011

                                 ______
                                 

                         HON. CAROLYN McCARTHY

                              of new york

                    in the house of representatives

                       Tuesday, December 21, 2010

  Mrs. McCARTHY of New York. Madam Speaker, the Continuing Resolution 
that passed in the House of Representatives today will keep the 
government funded at the current level through March, 2011, allowing 
operations to continue for programs that would otherwise have expired. 
Nationwide, we are continuing to recover from difficult economic times. 
It is more important than ever that the federal agencies and the 
programs they administer, which so many states and individuals depend 
on, receive the federal funding they need to operate without 
interruption.
  During House floor consideration and passage of this legislation, I 
was unavoidably absent from Washington due to a family health 
emergency. However, I am pleased that my colleagues passed, this 
important legislation, which I strongly support.
