Duckworth Votes Against Funding Bill That Does Nothing to Prevent Health Care Costs Crisis

[WASHINGTON, D.C.] - U.S. Senator Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) issued the following statement on the tonight's government funding vote:

"Trump and Republicans refuse to fight for American families, but I refuse to give up on them.

"I simply cannot, and I will not, vote to do nothing to help protect them from Trump's vindictive and malicious efforts in exchange for a vague promise from the least trustworthy Republican party in our nation's history.

"This is the time to keep fighting to bring costs down and protect the American people."
