Rep. Wesley Hunt: "As someone on my early 40s, I've come to realize something profound: the America First movement isn't just a slogan: it's a generational mission."

Rep. Joaquin Castro: "Over the last few months, the Trump Administration has pursued illegal military action in the Caribbean and are preparing for what looks like a regime change military operation in Venezuela. With a vote and without public debate."

Rep. Pat Fallon: "Democrats are blocking funding for maintaining our nuclear stockpile, submarines and aircraft carriers. Why? Because they care more about giving illegals free healthcare than they do about US national security."

Rep. Roger Williams: "Small business owners in Texas rely on air travel to move goods, meet customers, and grow. With air traffic controllers and TSA agents working without pay, delays mount across the nation. This shutdown is hurting Main Street America."
