WASHINGTON, D.C. – Republican
National Committee (RNC) Chairman Joe Gruters released the following statement
after Senate Democrats voted again to block pay for federal workers during
their government shutdown:
“Senate Democrats just voted to block paychecks for air traffic controllers,
Border Patrol, ICE agents, Capitol Police, and our troops,” said Chairman
Gruters. “They’ve created chaos at airports and across the country — all
while cashing their own checks. For more than a month, Democrats have watched
Americans struggle while putting politics ahead of the people who protect our
nation.”
