Today, Congressman Ted W. Lieu (D-Los Angeles County) issued the following statement after Republicans failed to fund the government before the deadline.
"Trump--despite his crassness, lack of experience governing and showboating--was supposed to be our dealmaker-in-chief. Instead, he rejected a bipartisan deal on DACA and has refused to ensure our military has the long-term certainty of an actual budget. We have a Republican House, Senate and White House and yet they can't govern. It's time they stop using our hallowed institutions as a political pawn."
