Last Friday evening, President Trump signed a short-term spending bill to end the shutdown and re-open government. The “Further Additional Continuing Appropriation Act, 2019” is a continuing resolution (CR) that provides fiscal year 2019 appropriations through Feb. 15, 2019. In addition to opening the shuttered portions of government, the CR authorizes the EB-Regional Center Program to resume operations through the end of the three-week appropriation.
IIUSA is active on Capitol Hill and will continue to visit offices and advocate on your behalf. As we learn more leading up to the next sunset date of February 15, we will keep you informed of progress made on a long-term reauthorization of the Program.
