Costa turned his back on America’s defenders

October 28, 2025

Military service members are missing their paychecks, which can impact our national security and military readiness, as well as make it harder for service members to pay their bills. Out of touch Democrat Jim Costa shut down the government and deny pay to those who defend our nation, choosing politics over patriotism.

“While House Republicans voted to keep paychecks flowing for America’s servicemembers, Democrat Jim Costa put politics before the people who protect us. Every missed paycheck weakens our readiness and disrespects our heroes.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
