Americans who’ve served our nation in years past and defended the freedoms we enjoy deserve the same respect as those who proudly serve today. House Republicans will continue working towards a solution to fully fund the government, while also working to end this government shutdown.” | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
