Team,
It happened again. Partisan gridlock forced us up to another government funding deadline, and Congress came dangerously close to another government shutdown. Without Republican votes to fund the government for the coming year, the only option was a temporary funding bill that kicks the can down the road and leaves our country and our federal workers vulnerable to another shutdown.
Senator Warner has a word for this never-ending cycle of brinkmanship and shutdown threats: it’s just plain STUPID.
In 2019, when we were in the midst of the Trump shutdown debacle, Senator Warner introduced the "Stop Shutdowns Transferring Unnecessary Pain and Inflicting Damage in the Coming Years Act" or Stop STUPIDITY Act to finally put a stop to these ridiculous government shutdowns.
Here’s the deal: if Congress and the President can’t reach a deal to fund the government, then Congress and the White House should shut down -- not the rest of our government that should continue serving the people.
Will you add your name to Mark’s petition to stop the GOP shutdown? [link removed]
Playing partisan political games with government funding is bad for Virginia and bad for our country. Republicans should put families before politics and get out of the way.
Are you with Mark Warner and Senate Democrats as they work to keep the government and prevent another GOP shutdown?
We must prevent a senseless GOP shutdown. Sign on right now to show your support. [link removed]
Thank you,
Team Warner
