Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen shut down the government, and our troops’ paychecks

October 11, 2025

Today is Day 11 of Tom Suozzi and Laura Gillen’s government shutdown. By closing the government, Suozzi, Gillen, and other Democrats are denying paychecks to our military servicemembers, law enforcement, and border patrol agents. While Republicans voted to keep America open and secure, Democrats chose politics over those who protect us.

“Shutting down the government to score political points is disgraceful. The fact that Democrats are willing to stiff our troops and law enforcement says everything you need to know about their priorities.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
