This is Whitesides’ Fault

September 30, 2025

Government funding runs out today, and it’s all George Whitesides’ fault. Out of touch obstructionist Whitesides put politics over people and voted against legislation to keep the government open. 

Whitesides’ reckless stunt forces Californians to face unnecessary uncertainty. A shutdown jeopardizes paychecks for servicemembers, law enforcement, TSA agents, and more. It delays assistance for small businesses, cuts off funding for Head Start, and puts veterans’ services at risk. All because Whitesides would rather play games than do his job. 

Out of touch Democrat George Whitesides isn’t just an obstructionist, he is a do-nothing disaster who fails to put Californians first every day. This shutdown is his fault, his mess, and his betrayal of the people he swore to serve.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
