Ruiz refused to reopen government and pay our troops

Without President Trump’s swift action, military families would have missed a paycheck, all because Raul Ruiz refused to reopen the government. They were willing to let our soldiers go without pay rather than give up their partisan demands.

President Trump stepped in and found a way to protect troop pay. Ruiz didn’t and wouldn’t.

“Out of touch Democrat Raul Ruiz were ready to let military families miss pay. They put illegal immigrants first and our troops last. President Trump found a way to save troop pay, Ruiz and Democrats couldn’t be bothered.” – NRCC Spokesman Christian Martinez
