The only person who can decide when our troops, our TSA agents, and our border patrol officers begin to get paid again is Chuck Schumer.

House Republicans did our job. We passed a clean, nonpartisan bill to keep the government open — just 24 pages long, a good-faith effort to give Congress seven more weeks to finish appropriations.

Schumer voted for the same thing 13 TIMES under President Biden and for 30 years has supported keeping the government operational. Now he’s blocking it to appease his far-left base.

This shutdown is on Democrats and Democrats alone.

As a condition for ending the Democrat shutdown, Democrats want hospitals paid MORE to treat illegal aliens than American citizens — including young pregnant women.

That’s not an exaggeration. It’s written in black and white — Page 57, Section 2141 of Chuck Schumer’s counterproposal.

Republicans made it illegal for Medicaid to reimburse care for illegal aliens at higher rates than for U.S. citizens. Democrats are now demanding to reverse that.

FACT: Democrats want to give taxpayer benefits to illegal aliens in exchange for opening the government.

Elizabeth Warren has as much credibility on this as she did on her genealogy report.

.Speaker Johnson lays out the reality of how the Democrat Shutdown has given President Trump the ability to make further cuts to the bureaucracy: "The person who has decided to put the White House in that situation is Chuck Schumer."
