As Donald Trump Calls to Shutdown the Federal Government, David Schweikert Stands Idly By

Trump to Congressional Republicans: “UNLESS YOU GET EVERYTHING, SHUT IT DOWN!

Late Sunday evening, the twice-impeached former president called on Congressional Republicans to shut down the federal government.

Time and time again, David Schweikert has enabled Trump’s extreme agenda in the House of Representatives – from voting to cut veterans’ benefits to restricting abortion care for servicemembers and their families.

Will David Schweikert – who votes with extremists like shutdown cheerleader Marjorie Taylor Greene 90% of the time – once again fail to break with extremists and deprive the more than 6,000 civilian federal workers he represents of their paychecks? 

DCCC spokesperson Justin Chermol:
“Now that Trump issued his marching orders, it’s clear David Schweikert intends to shut down the federal government with his extreme MAGA Republican colleagues like Marjorie Taylor Greene.”
