Rep. Greg Casar: "A government shutdown may sound complicated, but it's not. Democrats want to protect health care for working families. Republicans want to slash health care. Millions would lose coverage. Millions would pay higher prices. That's what is at stake."

Rep. Beth Van Duyne: "Just listen to what Dems have said in the past, they WANT more illegal immigration for census purposes in their dying, big blue Leftist cities and states. That's why Dems want to force Americans to pay for healthcare and other benefits for illegal immigrants so they can keep these people here and attract others. No taxpayer-funded benefits for illegal immigrants = less illegal immigrants in our country."

Rep. Ronny Jackson: "We are witnessing the most pro-American, pro-innovation, and pro-progress administration in American HISTORY! Full steam ahead on all fronts, from the White House!"

Rep. August Pfluger: "ICE officers and facilities have been hit with an unprecedented wave of violent threats this year, and any attack against them will not be tolerated."
