Greetings Colleagues,

The House has just passed bill for a one-week extension of the continuing resolution that will keep  the government open and funded through May 5th.

This temporary measure now moves onto the Senate where it is expected to be approved.

The federal government will use this next week to work on a budget to fund government operations through September.

We'll keep you posted as we learn more.

Thank you,
Carol Rhodes
Director
