Washington, D.C. -- Today Congresswoman Kim Schrier (WA-08) released the following statement after President Donald J. Trump announced a deal had been reached to end the 35-day long government shutdown:
"While I am happy that the shutdown will soon be over, it has been an incredibly frustrating month for hundreds of thousands of people who had to needlessly suffer. Let's be clear: this is not a way to govern.
This unnecessary shutdown has been frustrating and unfair for people and families who are not receiving paychecks.
But while the shutdown continues, I want to make sure residents of the 8th District had access to many of the resources that can help them during this difficult time. Local organizations and governments have made themselves available to furloughed employees and their families. This is not an exhaustive list, but I hope that it helps.
WASHINGTON, DC -- Today Congresswoman Kim Schrier (D-WA) gave a floor speech about how the shutdown is affecting her constituents.
