Jared Golden Hides As Shutdown Looms

Jared Golden Hides As Shutdown Looms

While House Republicans are working around the clock to avoid a costly and unnecessary government shutdown, Jared Golden is refusing to tell Mainers where he stands. House Republicans have put forward a commonsense plan to keep the government open, but Golden is ducking questions and leaving families in the dark.

"Rep. Jared Golden is not revealing how he will vote on House Republicans' short-term spending proposal ahead of a looming government shutdown deadline."

Right now, Jared Golden is feeling the heat from his progressive base and potential primary opponent to shut the government down. A government shutdown would deny veterans' healthcare, delay paychecks to our warfighters, slash funding to law enforcement, and hurt over 10,000 federal workers in Maine.

"While Mainers worry about their next paycheck and supporting their families, cowardly failure Jared Golden is hiding under his desk." - NRCC Spokeswoman Maureen O'Toole
