Wicker Votes to Keep Government Open

WASHINGTON - U.S. Senator Roger Wicker, R-Miss., today released the following statement.

"The government shutdown has occurred because Senator Chuck Schumer is holding the funding process hostage. The continuing resolution would have allowed the government to function while we finish the appropriations process in a bipartisan way. The longer Senator Schumer plays games, the greater the damage to national security, service members, and veterans. I urge my Democrat colleagues to adopt the House-passed bill, which would immediately reopen the government."
