In a staggering act of political cowardice, Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez refused to vote and pushed America closer to a government shutdown despite grandstanding about government shutdowns.
In the most pathetic way, Perez chose theatrics over results and now wants to point fingers while families, veterans, and federal workers pay the price.
"Out of touch Democrat Marie Gluesenkamp Perez cares more about playing political games than protecting Washington families. She refused to vote to keep the government open. Voters don't want blame-shifting politicians, they want leaders who solve problems." - NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
