Sykes Strikes Out: Voting for a Shutdown, Not Solutions

In a staggering act of political cowardice, Democrat Emilia Sykes voted to push America closer to a government shutdown, despite having the gall to previously say the “most basic duty as members of Congress is to keep the federal government running for the people we have the privilege of serving.”

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

“Out of touch Democrat Emilia Sykes cares more about playing political games than protecting Ohioans. 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 Spokesman Zach Bannon
