Pathetic Pou Tries to Punt Shutdown Blame

September 25, 2025

In a staggering act of political cowardice, Democrat Nellie Pou voted to push America closer to a government shutdown and then had the gall to blame Republicans as the crisis looms for New Jerseyans.

In the most pathetic way, Nellie Pou chose theatrics over results and now wants to point fingers while families, veterans, and federal workers pay the price.

“Out of touch Democrat Nellie Pou cares more about playing political games than protecting New Jerseyans. She voted to shut down the government and then had the gall to point fingers. Voters don’t want blame-shifting politicians, they want leaders who solve problems.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
