Ken Calvert Refuses to Come to Work As Shutdown Looms

Where is Ken Calvert?

Republicans are barrelling the country towards a government shutdown instead of addressing the health care crisis they have created.

And Ken Calvert is falling right in line.

House Republicans are full steam ahead to repeal ACA tax credits, which would raise the cost of health care premiums for nearly 30,000 hardworking people in California’s 41st Congressional District by over 75%.

Now, Calvert won’t even show up to work to address the crisis he has created.

DCCC Spokesperson Anna Elsasser:
“As Californians stare down a devastating health care crisis, Ken Calvert won’t even show up to work – choosing instead to march the government toward a shutdown rather than stand up for California families and take action to lower their health care costs.”
