I was proud to be there with my colleagues and thank the who supported reopening the government. They picked up six votes. That’s progress. Keep calling your senators. We need a clean bill to #ReleaseTheHostages and #PayOurEmployeesNOW

Today I voted for the ELEVENTH time to fund the government. The senate voted for the first time. And they voted no. I hope you are contacting your senators as well.
