Hardworking Americans deserve better than the current chaos in Washington. We elect leaders to work together to ensure government provides the necessary services effectively and efficiently for its citizens.
Instead of the parties working together, we face another potential government shutdown. This is politics at its worse, using the federal budget as a game of chicken with federal employees as the collateral damage. Again. And this time even more so with the Administration’s latest illegal threat of mass layoffs if the government shuts down. This needs to stop. We must expect more from the government and stand with federal employees so they can continue to provide the services we rely on and are not used as political pawns. We all need to call on Congress and the Administration to do their jobs. The mandate is clear: Negotiate a bipartisan deal to fund the government so that services continue and taxpayer dollars are not wasted by a shutdown that serves no one.
