President Obama will negotiate with the Russians, talk to the Iranians; but he won't come to Capitol Hill and work with the duly elected representatives of the American people. Harry Reid refuses to work with House Republicans to end the government shutdown and level the playing field for Americans. The House has made numerous attempts to delay ObamaCare for the American people, just like the President has for businesses. We also want fairness for all and have voted to strip out Federal contributions for Members, staff, the President's Cabinet, and political appointees. Unfortunately, the Senate doesn't care about providing fairness for hardworking American families. It's time for the Senate and the President to engage in the process and fight for commonsense solutions for the American people. The government shutdown will only be temporary, but ObamaCare is going to have long-term consequences that will hurt our economy. I urge the Senate and the President to come to the table, work with the House Republicans, end the shutdown, and provide fairness for all Americans. ____________________
