Harder’s Shutdown Crushes Stockton Small Biz

October 1, 2025

When out of touch Democrat Josh Harder voted to shut down the government, he cut off SBA loans, choked off growth for 4.3 million small businesses in California, and left entrepreneurs stranded without the tools they need to create jobs. Main Street is paying the price for Harder’s political games. 

If Josh Harder actually cared about small businesses in California, he would demand Democrats stop playing politics with people’s livelihoods and reopen the government.

“Out of touch Democrat Josh Harder voted to crush small businesses and stall our economy; proving again Democrats can’t be trusted with taxpayers’ money.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
