Josh Harder Flip-Flop on Government Shutdown Puts Californians at Risk

March 11, 2025

Out-of-touch Josh Harder has once again proved the Democrat Party will always put politics over people. Harder is choosing to play partisan games, even if it means shutting down the government and hurting hardworking families in California. But here’s Harder’s past statement about government shutdowns:

HARDER in 2019: “It’s A Shame That The Benchmark For Progress So Far Has Been Whether Or Not The Government Has Been Even Open. It’s Hard To Lower The Bar From There. We Can’t Let This Happen Again.”

“Josh Harder is betraying Californians by shamelessly flip-flopping on HIS own words and pushing for a government shutdown just to score cheap political points. This isn’t leadership—it’s a reckless, self-serving stunt that puts Americans at risk.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
