NETWORK Lobby for Catholic Social Justice opposed the FULL-YEAR CONTINUING APPROPRIATIONS AND EXTENSIONS ACT, 2025. This bill made significant cuts to programs that help keep costs down including significant cuts to critical housing programs. NETWORK strongly supports the following housing bills: HR 6644 Housing in the 21st Century Act which would increase housing supply by modernizing federal programs, reducing regulatory burdens, and giving local governments more flexibility to streamline building processes, making housing more affordable through supply-side solutions like updating zoning, encouraging pre-approved designs, and supporting new construction methods. S. 2720/HR 6957 Yes, in God's Backyard Act which would help faith-based organizations and institutions of higher education unlock the promise of their existing land holdings by transforming underused property into much-needed affordable housing. S. 2651, The Road to Housing Act which would tackle the housing crisis by increasing housing supply, modernizing programs, and reducing regulatory barriers, incorporating provisions from numerous other housing bills. NETWORK strongly supports the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, a legislative package that includes the vast majority of the Scott-Warren ROAD to Housing Act, which received unanimous support from the Senate last fall, and the vast majority of the housing provisions from the 21st Century Housing Act, which passed the House with overwhelming bipartisan support. The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act also includes a bill that would ban large institutional investors from buying up single-family homes. NETWORK supported the final FY26 Appropriations package for T-HUD: Continuum of Care funding, funding for vouchers, public housing maintenance funding, and emergency homeless funding. NETWORK strongly supported the revised 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act, a bipartisan bill to expand the supply of affordable housing.

NETWORK opposes H.Con.Res. 14, the Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2025. This resolution sets in motion a bill that, if passed, will significantly harm millions of hardworking people and families to pay for tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. NETWORK Lobby for Catholic Social Justice opposed the FULL-YEAR CONTINUING APPROPRIATIONS AND EXTENSIONS ACT, 2025. This bill made significant cuts to programs that help keep costs down in housing, healthcare, veterans services, seniors services, and more. This bill also shifted significant funding from human needs programs to fund the major expansion of family detention centers and private prisons to cage immigrant families. NETWORK strongly opposes H.R.1, the budget reconciliation bill, because it makes significant cuts to our nation's healthcare programs - MEDICAID and the Affordable Care Act - and food programs - the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program - to pay for 4.5 trillion dollars of tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations and to fund the mass separation of families through detention and deportation. The bill also raises our nation's debt by 3.5 trillion dollars. NETWORK opposed House CR proposal because it did not address the need to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits for 24 million Americans before open enrollment, November 1. NETWORK Lobby urged a YES on H.R. 7148 H.R. 7148, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2026, which was signed into law on February 3, 2026, becoming Public Law No: 119-75. It provides full-year, bipartisan funding for several federal departments-including Defense, Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Transportation-for the remainder of FY2026.

NETWORK opposes H.Con.Res. 14, the Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2025. This resolution sets in motion a bill that, if passed, it would be 7 Trillion dollars of tax benefits to the ultra-wealthy and corporations and would be "paid for" with significant cuts to health (Medicaid) and food programs (the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program.) NETWORK strongly support the Tax Cut for Workers Act (H.R. 2764). This bill would Virtually triple the maximum value of the EITC for so-called childless workers from about $540 to about $1,500; extend the credit to both younger and older workers who are currently ineligible for the credit because of their age - delivering the credit to people ages 19 to 24 as well as 65 and older; and make the credit more accessible for adults aging out of the foster youth system. NETWORK endorsed and supports the American Family Act to provide a fully refundable Child Tax Credit to all families. NETWORK strongly opposes HR 1 because the tax relief is highly regressive, providing most to high income individuals and major corporations (4.5 trillion), while failing to expand low income tax credits to lift working families out of poverty. This bill drives up our national debt by 3.5 trillion. Tax relief is "paid for" by gutting healthcare and food programs for families. The bill also encourages US job loss due to offshoring incentives.

This bill would Virtually triple the maximum value of the EITC for so-called childless workers from about $540 to about $1,500; extend the credit to both younger and older workers who are currently ineligible for the credit because of their age - delivering the credit to people ages 19 to 24 as well as 65 and older; and make the credit more accessible for adults aging out of the foster youth system. NETWORK endorsed and supports the American Family Act to provide a fully refundable Child Tax Credit to all families. NETWORK strongly opposes HR 1 because the tax relief is highly regressive, providing most to high income individuals and major corporations (4.5 trillion), while failing to expand low income tax credits to lift working families out of poverty. This bill drives up our national debt by 3.5 trillion. Tax relief is "paid for" by gutting healthcare and food programs for families. The bill also encourages US job loss due to offshoring incentives. NETWORK support the Working Families Disaster Tax Relief Act (S.3432 / H.R.6645) to help families affected by federally declared disasters by letting them use their previous year's income to calculate eligibility for the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) and the Child Tax Credit (CTC)

NETWORK opposes H.Con.Res. 14, the Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2025.

NETWORK opposes H.Con.Res. 14, the Resolution on the Budget for Fiscal Year 2025. This resolution sets in motion a bill that, if passed, will significantly harm millions of hardworking people and families to pay for tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. NETWORK Lobby for Catholic Social Justice opposed the FULL-YEAR CONTINUING APPROPRIATIONS AND EXTENSIONS ACT, 2025. This bill made significant cuts to programs that help keep costs down in housing, healthcare, veterans services, seniors services, and more. This bill also shifted significant funding from human needs programs to fund the major expansion of family detention centers and private prisons to cage immigrant families. NETWORK strongly opposes H.R.1, the budget reconciliation bill, because it makes significant cuts to our nation's healthcare programs - MEDICAID and the Affordable Care Act - and food programs - the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program - to pay for 4.5 trillion dollars of tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations and to fund the mass separation of families through detention and deportation. The bill also raises our nation's debt by 3.5 trillion dollars. NETWORK opposed House CR proposal because it did not address the need to extend the ACA enhanced premium tax credits for 24 million Americans before open enrollment, November 1.
