President Trump protected troop pay, Gonzalez played politics

Our heroes were on the brink of missing pay because Vicente Gonzalez chose political games over governing. Instead of helping, Gonzalez held our troops’ livelihoods hostage for leverage. President Trump stepped in to ensure our troops got paid and House Republicans backed him up. Gonzalez needs to explain why protecting partisan power mattered more than paying the men and women who serve.

“President Trump found a way to protect our troops’ pay when Vicente Gonzalez was too busy playing politics. Our troops shouldn’t be bargaining chips, they deserve paychecks and support, not partisan games.” – NRCC Spokesman Reilly Richardson
