Ruiz’s shutdown left families of servicemembers in crisis
Military service members are missing paychecks, and families are feeling it. Rent, car payments, and grocery bills don’t stop because Democrats shut down the government. While House Republicans voted to keep pay flowing, Democrats like Raul Ruiz put politics ahead of the patriots who protect this country.
“Raul Ruiz’s shutdown is more than a political stunt; it’s a direct hit on the men and women defending our nation. Republicans voted to pay the troops; Democrats voted to stiff the troops.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
