Chuck Schumer and the Democrats just made it clear where their priorities are — and it’s not with the American people.

Democrats voted AGAINST paychecks for our troops, necessary care for our veterans, and keeping our government open.

Instead, the Radical Left wants to throw a tantrum until Republicans compromise on making America a sanctuary country for illegal immigrants. The Democrats would rather fight for handouts to illegals than fund the military that protects our nation.

It’s disgraceful.

I served in our nation’s military as an Army Captain. I’ve seen firsthand what real sacrifice looks like — and I can tell you, our troops deserve better than to be used as bargaining chips by Washington Liberals.

It’s time we demand change.

The Radical Left has made their choice. Now it’s time for us to make ours.

Let’s show Washington that the American people are watching — and we’re not backing down.

For America,

Mike Pompeo

Army Captain (Ret.)
