Frank Mrvan’s Shutdown Hurts Firefighters and Cops

On National First Responders Day, Frank Mrvan is paying lip service to our heroes while his shutdown hurts the very people who protect our communities.

Because of Mrvan’s shutdown, FEMA grants for fire, EMS, and emergency preparedness are delayed, and local departments are being forced to stretch their budgets just to keep serving families.

“Firefighters, EMTs, and police officers don’t take a day off, but Democrats shut down the government that supports them. If Democrats really cared about first responders, they’d stop playing games and reopen the government.” – NRCC Spokesman Zach Bannon
