Does Nellie Pou not care about New Jerseyans at all?
Radical Democrats are pushing are pushing for a government shutdown, and out-of-touch Nellie Pou is hiding. Will she join her Democrat cronies and callously put politics over people, or will she put New Jerseyans first?
If Pou chooses to put politics first, here’s how her vote will hurt New Jerseyans – the very people she purports to help:
- New Jerseyans’ safety may be threatened as law enforcement officers, members of the military, and TSA workers might not get paid.
- There are 350,538 veterans in the state that will lose out on critical programs – including employment assistance programs.
- The 4,506 federal workers in Pou’s district may have to work WITHOUT getting paid.
- Millions in loan financing for New Jersey’s 979,085 small businesses will be jeopardized.
- Funding for the Head Start program – which 9,032 children in New Jersey rely on – may be cut off.
“Shutting down the government will have disastrous – and potentially dangerous – consequences on every single New Jerseyan, but all Nellie Pou is worried about is scoring political points. It’s almost hard to believe, but that’s exactly how out-of-touch Pou and her party really is.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
