Rep. Austin Scott Reacts to Democrat-Forced Government Shutdown

WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Representative Austin Scott (GA-08) today released the following statement regarding the Democrat-Forced Government Shutdown: " House Republicans did our job 13 days ago when we passed a clean continuing resolution to keep the government funded. Senate Democrats have made it clear that they are willing to risk the jobs and essential programs of Americans for no reason other than their hatred of President Trump. House Republicans will continue to fight this political malpractice every step of the way," said Rep. Scott. ###
