Iowa Dems say NO to paychecks for DHS

For a second day in a row, House Democrats voted down a bipartisan measure to get paychecks into the hands of federal workers, with Abby Finkenauer, Dave Loebsack and Cindy Axne joining their radical colleagues in voting no on paying Department of Homeland Security employees.

Finkenauer, Loebsack and Axne’s votes against paying DHS employees, which include the US Coast Guard, Customs and Border Patrol and ICE, are mystifying considering their rhetoric on the importance of paying federal workers. Blind loyalty to Nancy Pelosi makes you do funny things…

NRCC Comment: “Abby Finkenauer, Dave Loebsack and Cindy Axne’s votes to deny paychecks to the brave men and women of the United States Coast Guard and other Homeland Security agencies are shameful. It’s time for Iowa Democrats to stop playing political games, do their jobs and reopen the federal government.” – NRCC Spokesman Bob Salera
