Senator Cornyn highlights the negative effects of the government shutdown on Texas, urging Senate Democrats to support funding.
Quiver AI Summary
Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) has raised concerns about the impact of the ongoing government shutdown, particularly on Texas, due to its size and military presence. He emphasized that Texas houses 15 active-duty military installations, where personnel are required to continue working without pay during the shutdown.
Cornyn criticized Senate Democrats for voting against the funding bill, stating, “This is extraordinarily unfair to government employees who are being denied pay through no fault of their own.” He calls for bipartisan action to resolve the funding impasse and ensure federal employees are compensated.
Pointing to the broader implications, Cornyn remarked, “Being unable to pass a bill to fund the government... strikes me as a threat to our democracy,” urging colleagues to support a clean government funding resolution.
