Rep. Peters said he voted against H.R. 9770, a continuing resolution extending government funding through December 4, 2026, because it lacked language restricting appropriated funds for ICE and Border Patrol. His office also said he offered an amendment adding guardrails from the Stop Excessive Force in Immigration Act, but it was not included.

Assessments
Peters promised to oppose spending bills funding ICE and Border Patrol without immigration-enforcement guardrails. The evidence identifies H.R. 9770 as a continuing appropriations bill lacking such guardrails, and the House roll call records Peters voting Nay on passage during his current federal term. His submitted amendment to add enforcement guardrails further supports candidate credit, but the core promise was fulfilled by opposing the bill.
