Does Marcy Kaptur not care about Ohioans at all?
Out-of-touch Marcy Kaptur and her radical Democrat cronies are pushing for a government shutdown, callously putting politics over people.
Here’s how badly Marcy Kaptur’s political grandstanding will hurt Ohioans – the very people she purports to help:
- Ohioans’ safety may be threatened as law enforcement officers, members of the military, and TSA workers might not get paid.
- There are 774,935 veterans in the state that will lose out on critical programs – including employment assistance programs.
- The 4,160 federal workers in Kaptur’s district may have to work WITHOUT getting paid.
- OH-09’s 7,995 farmers may not have access to financial assistance – including disaster relief.
- Millions in loan financing for Ohio’s 1.1 million small businesses will be jeopardized.
- Funding for the Head Start program – which 25,931 children in Ohio rely on – may be cut off.
“Shutting down the government will have disastrous – and potentially dangerous – consequences on every single Ohioan, but all Marcy Kaptur is worried about is scoring political points. It’s almost hard to believe, but that’s exactly how out-of-touch Kaptur and her party really is.” – NRCC Spokesman Mike Marinella
