House Republicans passed a responsible plan to fund the government and protect hardworking taxpayers. Instead of working toward a reasonable agreement, Maryland Democrats chose to shut it down over unrelated policy demands. Statement From Congressman Andy Harris: “Despite the high number of federal workers in our state, I was the only member of our delegation to vote to keep the government open,” said Congressman Harris. “Governor Moore and Maryland Democrats talk about ‘supporting workers,’ but their actions tell a different story. Every Member of the Maryland Delegation voted to shut the government down and Maryland’s Senators Chris Van Hollen and Angela Alsobrooks have voted to shut down the government five times - and by all accounts will continue to do so. They could end this shutdown today if they truly cared about Maryland families.” Statement From Maryland Freedom Caucus Members: “Governor Wes Moore runs to a microphone instead of leading. Federal workers need Senators Alsobrooks and Van Hollen to vote to reopen the government, not demand taxpayer-funded health insurance for illegal immigrants. Marylanders deserve leadership, not political theater.” # # # | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-04-06T19:32:54Z |
