Senator Scott: Democrats are playing politics with government funding, putting Americans last
WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Tim Scott (R-S.C.) today released the following statement after Minority Leader Chuck Schumer led Senate Democrats in voting against a clean short-term funding bill. The continuing resolution failed in the Senate with a vote of 55-45.
"Republicans have stood resolute in voting to keep our government open and ensure essential services remain available for the American people.
"Democrats chose to shut down the federal government, putting American families and workers last.
"While Democrats play politics with government funding, I remain committed to advancing fiscally responsible, commonsense solutions that put South Carolinians and Americans first."
