Friends,

Federal funding runs out tomorrow at midnight — and Chuck Schumer is holding the government hostage.

Two weeks ago, I joined my House Republican colleagues to pass President Trump’s clean, bipartisan, short-term funding bill to keep the lights on. No gimmicks. No partisan riders. Just a straightforward extension to keep essential services running and Trump’s agenda on track.

Schumer rejected our responsible approach and is threatening a shutdown over a radical wish list that Americans have rejected:

• Healthcare for illegal immigrants
• Open borders
• Less funding for rural hospitals
• $500 million for left-wing media
• $1.5 trillion in new spending

A shutdown means troops could go without pay, veterans face delays in healthcare, and families lose access to critical services — all because Democrats refuse to accept a clean funding bill.

Make no mistake: Republicans have done our job. If the government shuts down, the blame will rest squarely on Chuck Schumer and Democrats, who are putting their partisan agenda ahead of the American people.

This is their shutdown.

Sincerely,
