Pou’s Priorities: Illegals First, Jersey Families Last

October 10, 2025

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