DeGette Statement on Failed Republican Government Funding Attempt

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Today, Congresswoman Diana DeGette (CO-01) released the following statement after House Republicans failed to pass a continuing resolution to fund the government.

“We are facing a looming deadline to fund the government by October 1, and there are only 8 legislative days left until a Republican shutdown. House Republicans need to stop with the political gamesmanship that only hurts the American people. They need to get serious right now about funding the government, which is Congress’ most basic responsibility.”
