Landsman on Government Reopening Without Healthcare Protection

WARREN COUNTY, OH -- Congressman Greg Landsman (D-OH-01) released the following statement after Congress voted to reopen the federal government without protecting healthcare:

"The American people wanted the government to reopen with their healthcare protected. What Congress just passed doesn’t do that and it doesn’t represent the priorities of folks in Southwest Ohio. We submitted 12 amendments to this budget to address healthcare, food assistance, tariffs. Every single one was rejected.

I can’t let down the 32,00 people in my district now facing skyrocketing healthcare costs. Their tax dollars should be spent on them, and I’ll keep fighting to make sure they get the healthcare funding they need.

I’ve never seen a President so unwilling to work with the other side. We need a return to bipartisanship, or we’ll be right back here in a few months. This is Trump’s government – and it is absolutely, categorically broken."
