Vicente Gonzalez is driving America into a Government Shutdown Instead of Fighting for Texans

Out-of-touch Democrats are pushing America to the brink of a government shutdown. The clock is ticking—will Vicente Gonzalez have the backbone to defy his party bosses and fight for Texans, or cave to the radical left?

If Gonzalez chooses to put politics first, here’s how his vote would hurt Texans – the very people he purports to help:

• Texans’ safety may be threatened as law enforcement officers, members of the military, and TSA workers might not get paid.
• There are 1,584,844 veterans in the state that will lose out on critical programs – including employment assistance programs.
• The 10,166 federal workers in Gonzalez’s district may have to work WITHOUT getting paid.
• TX-34’s 4,520 farmers may not have access to financial assistance – including disaster relief.
• Millions in loan financing for Texas’s 3.3 million small businesses will be jeopardized.
• Funding for the Head Start program – which 51,195 children in Texas rely on – may be cut off.
