Political Quotes

“Mr. Speaker, during times of strife and stagnation, the most powerful tool we have at our disposal is the power of prayer. It is with that in mind that I offer my most heartfelt prayers for the men and women serving in uniform who are going without pay, and for the 9 million children forgoing access to critical healthcare during this Schumer shutdown. House Republicans fulfilled our bipartisan mission to responsibly fund the government, support our troops, and reauthorize CHIP for the children who rely on the program. The reason that Senator Schumer and Senate Democrats shut down the government is plain and simple. They value the demands of illegal immigrants more than they value the needs of American citizens. It is now the third day of the Schumer shutdown and that is 3 days too many in my book. I pray that the Senate Democrats who have shut down our government will soon see reason and will fund the government. Our citizens deserve better. End the Schumer shutdown. ____________________”
