Congressman Marlin Stutzman (IN-03), a member of the House Budget Committee and House Committee on Financial Services, released a statement as government funding was set to expire. In his remarks, Stutzman criticized Democrats for their approach to recent budget negotiations.
"Democrats had plenty of opportunities over the past month to act in good faith and keep the government open," said Rep. Stutzman. "Instead, they decided to dig their heels in the sand on funding projects the American people have made clear they do not support. Republicans were elected by our country in the House, Senate, and the Presidency nearly a year ago because they want our national debt reduced, ridiculous handouts to illegals ended, and the spending rescissions President Trump promised enacted. Republicans hold the cards and the majority; it is time for Democrats to come to the table and put our country over their emotions."
Stutzman's comments reflect ongoing partisan disagreement regarding federal spending priorities and efforts to avoid a government shutdown.
