House Democrats remain ready to negotiate a fair, bipartisan spending bill, but we will not compromise when it comes to protecting the healthcare of the American people and lowering everyday costs.
Yet the Republican majority has ignored every opportunity to address the healthcare crisis their "Big Beautiful Bill" created, opting instead to shut down the government.
Democrats have consistently offered a fair, bipartisan path forward: a spending plan that strengthens health care, invests in public health, and helps families make ends meet.
My Democratic colleagues and I will not be complicit in their failure.
This is a crisis of their own making, driven by political theater rather than concern for the health, safety, and security of the American people. Their actions are reckless, morally indefensible, and they put billionaires above the lives of working families.
Instead of negotiating with Democrats to find common ground, as Democrats have done when they held the majority, House Republicans have chosen to cancel votes, skip town, and shut down federal agencies.
Republicans control the House, Senate, and the White House – the three bodies necessary to fund the government.
Today, for the third time under the Trump administration and a Republican-controlled Congress, the federal government has entered a shutdown, forcing millions of Americans to pay the price for their inaction.
This shutdown is theirs. Republicans own it – and everyday Americans are paying the price.
House Democrats are ready to pass a bipartisan bill to protect Americans’ health care and stop out-of-pocket costs from skyrocketing. But we won’t give Republicans a blank check for their extreme agenda that leaves Americans less healthy and less secure.
They’ve already cut Medicaid for millions of Americans – now they’re doubling down and driving up premiums for 22 million more.
Republicans in Congress are shutting down the government because they refuse to fix the health care crisis they created.
House Democrats are in Washington, ready to work. Republicans need to show up and do their jobs.
The government shouldn’t shut down because Republicans refuse to work for the American people.
House Republicans canceled votes, blocked negotiations, and now they’re missing in action as the government shuts down.
No votes. No solutions. Just empty seats.
For the next 24 hours, House Democrats are going live as we fight to protect health care and keep the government open.

House Democrats are in Washington, ready to negotiate a fair, bipartisan agreement to protect health care and keep the government open. Meanwhile, Republicans skipped town, canceled votes, and are refusing to negotiate a deal that works for the American people.
Republicans control the House, Senate, and the White House – and they are forcing a shutdown that will leave millions unpaid, cut off essential services, and freeze programs families rely on, all because they refuse to address the health care crisis they created.
The federal government shuts down at midnight, and Congressional Republicans are doing nothing to stop it.
Congresswoman Pramila Jayapal is a friend and a colleague who has served her constituents and our country with distinction. Threats against her, or against any public servant, are unacceptable and must be condemned in the strongest possible terms.
