According to Grok Thomas Massie has been consistent on voting no on continuing resolutions. The CR the Republicans are trying to pass is the same sending levels as Biden last year..
What happened to America first and reigning in spending??
Trump is seriously misguided by the people him. He has good instincts horrible execution of vision.
Here is what grok said:
Thomas Massie, U.S. Representative from Kentucky's 4th district, has a consistent record of voting against Continuing Resolutions (CRs) during his tenure in Congress, which began in November 2012. CRs are temporary funding measures used to keep the federal government operational when a formal budget has not been passed. Massie’s opposition to CRs aligns with his broader stance against increasing government spending, the national debt, and what he perceives as a lack of fiscal accountability in Congress.
Massie has publicly stated his opposition to CRs on multiple occasions, emphasizing his belief that they perpetuate wasteful spending and fail to address underlying budgetary issues. For example, on March 6, 2013, he voted against H.R. 933, a CR to fund the government through September of that year, citing concerns over unchecked spending. Similarly, on May 2, 2017, he voted against H.R. 244, a $1.163 trillion omnibus spending bill that exceeded congressional spending caps by over $90 billion, arguing it contributed to a national debt nearing $20 trillion at the time.
More recently, Massie has continued this pattern. On March 9, 2025, he expressed his intent to vote against a CR that would maintain 2024 funding levels into 2025, criticizing it for ignoring a legally mandated 1% cut and for funding "waste, fraud, and abuse" identified by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). He reiterated this stance on March 4, 2025, and December 19, 2024, when he voted against another CR, a decision praised by some X users who value his fiscal conservatism. Posts on X from March 10, 2025, also claim that Massie has "never once cast a floor vote for a CR in his entire career," though this cannot be independently verified without a comprehensive roll call analysis beyond the scope of this response.
While specific roll call votes for every CR since 2012 are not fully detailed here, Massie’s consistent public statements and documented votes—such as those against H.R. 933 in 2013 and H.R. 244 in 2017—support the narrative of his unwavering opposition. His voting record reflects a principled stance against temporary funding measures, often making him an outlier even among fellow Republicans, as seen in his lone GOP vote against a budget resolution on February 25, 2025.
In summary, Thomas Massie has a well-established history of voting "no" on Continuing Resolutions, driven by his fiscal conservative principles and skepticism of government spending practices. For a complete record, you can review his votes on the official House website (massie.house.gov) under the "Vote Record" section, which provides detailed roll call information.
