Does Tom Suozzi not care about New Yorkers at all?
Out-of-touch Tom Suozzi and his radical Democrat cronies are pushing for a government shutdown, callously putting politics over people.
Here’s how badly Suozzi’s vote will hurt New Yorkers – the very people he purports to help:
- New Yorkers’ safety may be threatened as law enforcement officers, members of the military, and TSA workers might not get paid.
- There are 778,522 veterans in the state that will lose out on critical programs – including employment assistance programs.
- The 6,438 federal workers in Suozzi’s district may have to work WITHOUT getting paid.
- Millions in loan financing for New York’s 2.2 million small businesses will be jeopardized.
- Funding for the Head Start program – which 38,360 children in New York rely on – may be cut off.
“Shutting down the government will have disastrous – and potentially dangerous – consequences on every single New Yorker, but all Tom Suozzi is worried about is scoring political points. It’s almost hard to believe, but that’s exactly how out-of-touch Suozzi and his party really is.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
