Day 14: President Trump fixes what Perez Broke

October 15, 2025

Today is Day 14 of Marie Gluesenkamp Perez’s government shut down. While House Republicans voted to keep paychecks flowing for America’s servicemembers, out of touch Democrats like Perez choose politics over patriots. Thankfully, President Trump has stepped in and fixed it, ensuring our troops get paid even as Perez shut the government down.

Shutting down the government to score political points is disgraceful. The fact that Democrats like Marie Gluesenkamp Perez are willing to stiff our troops and law enforcement says everything you need to know about their priorities.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
