Our nation is less than three days from a María Elvira Salazar-manufactured government shutdown, and House Republicans have all but abandoned any hope of averting one to pursue their extreme agenda that attacks Florida’s middle-class families.
This Salazar-manufactured shutdown impacts:
-
Over 2,500 federally backed home loans may be delayed every day a shutdown goes on.
-
Small business owners attempting to apply for federal loans to keep their businesses going.
-
Federal efforts to combat the opioid epidemic and fight dangerous fentanyl trafficking, directly impeding law enforcement’s ability to stop the deadly flow of fentanyl across our Southern Border.
-
FEMA’s ability to review and approve applications for aid after a major disaster – including applications for individual assistance – during hurricane season and an unprecedented wildfire season could be severely restricted and delayed.
-
Essential workers – like firefighters, law enforcement officers, and members of the armed forces – would be forced to put their lives on the line without any pay.
DCCC Spokesperson Justin Chermol:
“María Elvira Salazar is enabling extreme MAGA Republicans to shut down the government. No matter how much she says otherwise, the Salazar-manufactured shutdown will harm Florida families, small businesses, and economy – and we’ll make it clear to the American public who’s to blame for all the chaos and dysfunction.”
