Ken Calvert Puts California First While Dems Prioritize a Dangerous Shutdown

Ken Calvert voted to keep the government open, and now, he’s vowed to forgo his congressional salary because Democrats shut down the government, for Calvert, it’s about putting Californians first, not politics.

Democrats got their way, California families’ safety will be threatened as law enforcement officers, members of the military, and TSA workers are being forced to work without pay, veterans will lose access to critical programs, and Head Start funding is endangered for thousands of kids across the California.

“While Democrats pushed America into a costly and dangerous government shutdown, Ken Calvert is showing Californians that he’s in Congress to fight for them, not play harmful political games.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
