How Out-of-Touch is George Whitesides?
In case you forgot, extreme Democrat George Whitesides voted to shut down the government—choosing politics over Californians! He turned his back on the very people he claims to fight for, putting partisan games ahead of their livelihood.
- Southern Californians’ safety may be threatened as law enforcement officers, members of the military, and TSA workers might not get paid.
- There are 1.6 million veterans in the state that will lose out on critical programs — including employment assistance programs.
- The 9,146 federal workers in Whitesides’ district may have to work WITHOUT getting paid.
- Millions in loan financing for the state’s 4.2 million small businesses will be jeopardized.
- Funding for the Head Start program — which 50,574 children in California rely on — may be cut off.
This week the NRCC launched digital ads targeting Whitesides for voting to shut down the government:

“Out-of-touch George Whitesides proved he doesn’t care about his constituents—voting to shut down the government. Californians deserve a leader who fights for them, not a self-serving politician more focused on stunts than solutions.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
