NRCC Launches Paid Ad Campaign Hitting Derek Tran and Dave Min for Government Shutdown

October 1, 2025

WASHINGTON, D.C. – On day one of the Democrats’ government shutdown, the National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) launched a paid advertising campaign targeting Democrats Derek Tran and Dave Min for shutting down the government and putting politics over people.

By voting to close the government, Derek Tran and Dave Min risked paychecks for servicemembers, police, and Border Patrol; stalled disaster relief; and cut off critical support for veterans, farmers, and small businesses while pushing open-borders policies and handouts for illegal immigrants.

Out of touch Democrats Derek Tran and Dave Min are grinding America to a halt. Tran and Min’s shutdown put critical programs that Californians rely on at risk, just so they can prioritize open borders and handouts for illegal immigrants. Voters won’t forgive this betrayal.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
