CONGRESSMAN
On Friday, Rep. Ben Cline (VA-06) was appointed as a Republican conferee for the Fiscal Year 2026 Agriculture, Military Construction-Veterans Affairs, and Legislative Branch appropriations bills. In this role, Cline, who represents Salem, will join 18 of his colleagues in negotiating with the Senate to finalize these funding measures.
“I am proud to join my Republican colleagues in the conference process with the Senate on these critical appropriations bills. It’s been nearly six years since Congress last convened a conference committee, and House Republicans are steadfast in our commitment to restoring fiscal responsibility in Washington. This role gives me a vital opportunity to advocate for provisions that best serve the interests of America and Virginia’s Sixth District,” Cline.
