Wied's Statement After Ending the Democrats' Shutdown

WASHINGTON - Rep. Tony Wied (R-WI) released the following statement after he voted to end the Democrats' shutdown after 43 days.

"Tonight, I voted to end the Democrats' shutdown and reopen the government. After 43 long days, this vote ensures our service members and federal workers finally get paid, and that we resume critical services for our farmers and struggling American families. Despite constant attempts by Democrats, including Senator Baldwin, to stand in the way and prolong the suffering of Americans, House Republicans got the job done. I look forward to getting back to work and continuing to deliver for hardworking Northeast Wisconsin families."
