Ron Johnson on Eliminate Shutdowns Act to End Chaos of Government Shutdowns | 2025-09-29 | 2025 | 2025-09 | Republican | Senate | FL | Rick Scott | S001217 | www.rickscott.senate.gov | rickscott | https://www.rickscott.senate.gov/press-releases/ | page_html | WASHINGTON, D.C. – Today, Senator Rick Scott joined Senator Ron Johnson on the Eliminate Shutdowns Act to take government shutdowns off the table and stop Democrats from using the threat of a shutdown to demand a liberal wish list that undermines the President’s agenda. Senator Scott is also leading his No Budget, No Pay Act that requires lawmakers to pass annual budget resolutions and appropriations bills on time, or forgo their taxpayer-funded salaries. Senator Rick Scott said, “The American people are sick of the constant looming threat of a government shutdown due to Leader Schumer and Democrats’ ridiculous demands. This most recent threatened Schumer Shutdown is just the latest in a string of temper tantrums the Democrats have thrown to try and stop President Trump delivering for the American people. Democrats’ demands are a wasteful, liberal wish-list while President Trump and Republicans are working to fund the government and work for the American people. Families shouldn’t suffer because of Democrats’ dysfunction. I’m proud to join Senator Johnson on his effort to take shutdowns off the table to end this chaos and get to work on passing real appropriations bills and hold Congress accountable for doing so with my No Budget, No Pay Act.” ### | 1 | 2026-03-30T01:40:41Z | 2026-03-30T11:08:25Z |
