Bynum’s shutdown hurts Oregon workers even unions say so

October 28, 2025

It’s Day 27 of Janelle Bynum and the Democrats’ Shutdown, and the American Federation of Government Employees, the country’s largest union representing federal workers, is urging Democrats to stop their nonsense and join Republicans in reopening the government. 

“When the very people Janelle Bynum claim to fight for are begging him to stop the shutdown, it tells you everything you need to know about the Democrat Shutdown. Bynum’s shameless temper tantrum has turned into a hostage crisis, and Washington workers are the ones paying the price.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
