WASHINGTON,
D.C. – Republican
National Committee (RNC) Chairman Joe Gruters issued the following
statement after Senate Democrats voted to continue their reckless shutdown:
“The American people have now endured three days of pain because Democrats are
putting illegal immigrants ahead of the citizens they are supposed to
represent,” said Chairman Gruters. “The Senate voted again today on a
clean Republican bill to fund the government, but 44 Democrats including Chuck
Schumer, Jon Ossoff, and Mark Warner blocked it to protect their far-left
agenda that includes taxpayer-funded healthcare for illegal immigrants. While
Democrats keep collecting their paychecks, veterans, seniors, law enforcement,
and working families are left with nothing.”
