This government shutdown was entirely avoidable and is the responsibility of President Trump, who boasted that he was proud to shut down the government.' He put far right radio and TV pundits ahead of the American people and created uncertainty and instability for more than 420,000 federal workers who are furloughed or will be forced to work without pay this holiday season. House Democrats were poised to vote in favor of a clean plan to temporarily fund the government and were denied. Republicans have the ability to reopen the government at any time. If they don't, Democrats will take control of the House in January and govern responsibly. I stand ready to work with my colleagues to reopen the government at the earliest possible date. # | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
