Once Again, Peter Meijer Votes to Shut Down the Government

Meijer AGAIN recklessly threatens the economy

Today, Peter Meijer joined his fellow Republicans and voted to shut down the government, recklessly threatening our economy and risking critical government services.

If Peter Meijer had it his way, Michiganders who are employed by the federal government would be furloughed without pay, our national security would be at risk, and Michigan families who rely on federal benefits would be left on their own.

“Peter Meijer once again irresponsibly voted to shut down the government despite knowing the damage it would inflict on Michigan families and economy,” said DCCC spokesperson Elena Kuhn. “Voters deserve better than rigid, hyperpartisan Republicans like Meijer who consistently turns his back on his constituents.”
