We are less than two weeks away from another Trump Shutdown, if the President does not abandon his demands for an ineffective border wall. In the U.S. House of Representatives, my colleagues and I are working hard to keep our government open, funded, and functioning properly.
On Friday, after 35 days of holding our government hostage, inflicting financial hardship on 800,000 federal employees and their families, opening Americans up to new security and safety concerns, and hurting our economy, President Trump finally agreed to reopen the federal government.
Today marks one month since Donald Trump shut down the government over his demands for a wall along our Southern Border. As a result of this shutdown, 800,000 federal workers are expected to miss their second paycheck, our economy has slowed, and many of our government services remain closed--jeopardizing safety and leaving many Americans on edge.
Today marks the 24th day of the Trump Shutdown-the longest shutdown in American history. |
