One of the things I am known to be very good at is how to win Senate seats.

[S]hutdowns mean real pain for American families.

the best of two bad options, warning that a shutdown would only play into Trump's hands and his attempts to dismantle the federal government.

[A] shutdown would be the best distraction Donald Trump could ask for from his awful agenda.

Our caucus is unified on a clean April 11 CR that will keep the government open and give Congress time to negotiate bipartisan legislation that can pass.

I think the whole Democratic Party is united on what I mentioned in the earlier broadcast, showing how bad Trump is in every way… We’re succeeding.

While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that are much, much worse.
