“Leader” Hakeem Jeffries walked Josh Gottheimer off a steep cliff

Thanks to Republicans, our nation just averted a costly and unnecessary government shutdown — no thanks to House Democrats, whose blind partisanship and extremism got in the way of working for the American people.

And now, Josh Gottheimer must explain to New Jerseyans exactly why he put them in harm’s way and callously voted to shut down the government.

“Josh Gottheimer had a choice: put New Jerseyans first and keep the government open, or side with radical Democrats and jeopardize the safety and well-being of his own constituents. Now Gottheimer will have to answer why he sold out New Jerseyans.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole

NOTE: By voting against the House-passed CR, House Democrats voted against paying troops, border patrol, federal workers, veteran benefits, and small business loans.
