Costa’s shutdown has gone too far even unions say so

October 28, 2025

It’s Day 27 of Jim Costa 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 Jim Costa claims to fight for are begging him to stop the shutdown, it tells you everything you need to know about the Democrat Shutdown. Costa’s shameless temper tantrum has turned into a hostage crisis, and California workers are the ones paying the price.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
