In statement, AIA President and CEO David F Melcher called on Congress to pass an omnibus appropriations bill in early December that would avoid the specter of a year-long continuing resolution. Bipartisan Budget Act of 2015 provides badly needed funds and a measure of stability across all government agencies for the next 2 years. Congress should follow the dictates of the budget deal they negotiated less than 2 months ago and pass full-year appropriations bill for fiscal year 2016.
