Costa’s Shutdown Puts Illegals Before Californians

October 10, 2025

Out of touch Democrat Jim Costa forced a government shutdown rather than keep the government open and protect essential services for American families. Why? To demand taxpayer-funded health care for illegal immigrants. 

“Out of touch Democrat Jim Costa chose chaos over common sense. He shut down the government to prioritize benefits for illegal immigrants instead of the critical programs Californians rely on. It’s backwards, reckless, and says everything about Costa’s real priorities.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
