Enacting large-scale Reductions in Force at our federal agencies in the midst of a shutdown is further proof that Vought and the Trump Admin will stop at nothing to ensure the government does not function for the American people.

This shameful campaign will have consequences for the entire nation.

The choice before Republicans is the same as the one before the Good Samaritan on that road.

The fight to save affordable health care is about reaching out and lifting Americans up. We must not leave them on their own.

Health care premiums are at hand, and the loss of coverage for millions of Americans is fast approaching. The time to act is now.

Republicans have left Democrats - and the American people - waiting.

House Republicans are nowhere to be found as the health care crisis that they orchestrated worsens every day the government remains closed.

The absence of a September jobs report comes as Republicans are raising health care premiums and costs and giving tax breaks to corporations and the wealthy.

Despite the lack of data, Republicans' message to working families is clear: You’re On Your Own.

The facts speak for themselves: the American people know who is to blame for shutting down the government.

Republicans are in charge of the House, the Senate, and the White House.
We asked 1,000 Americans who is to blame for the shutdown. Here’s what they said.
More Americans blame Trump and Republicans than Democrats for shutdown, poll finds.

The Trump Admin's policies have devastated thousands of federal employees and families in MD. Republicans' government shutdown will worsen the ongoing crisis.

Team Maryland is ready to work, ready to reopen government and end this health care crisis. It’s time for Republicans to come to the table.

The only American that Republicans' partisan funding bill serves is Donald Trump.
