Josh Riley’s Reckless Shutdown Priorities Hurt Upstate Families

Out of touch Democrat Josh Riley forced a government shutdown rather than keep the government open and protect essential services for American families. Why? To demand taxpayer-funded health care for illegal immigrants.

“Out of touch Democrat Josh Riley chose chaos over common sense. He shut down the government to prioritize benefits for illegal immigrants instead of the critical programs New Yorkers rely on. It’s backwards, reckless, and says everything about Riley’s real priorities.” – NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O’Toole
