Pelosi, Bay Area House Democrats Release Video Calling on Republicans to Reopen Government
October 23, 2025
Press Release
San Francisco - Today, ten Democratic Members of Congress representing the Bay Area released a joint video message calling on President Donald Trump, Speaker Mike Johnson and House Republicans to end their weeks-long government shutdown and return to Washington to do their jobs.
The video features Speaker Emerita Nancy Pelosi (CA-11) and Representatives Jared Huffman (CA-02), Mike Thompson (CA-04), John Garamendi (CA-08), Mark DeSaulnier (CA-10), Lateefah Simon (CA-12), Eric Swalwell (CA-14), Kevin Mullin (CA-15), Sam Liccardo (CA-16), and Ro Khanna (CA-17).
Together, the lawmakers highlight the real-world consequences of the Republican shutdown-from rising health care premiums to delayed services that millions of working families rely on.
The Members' message underscores that the ongoing shutdown, now in its fourth week, is a deliberate act of obstruction by Donald Trump and House Republican Leadership-putting families, federal employees and the economy at risk.
