Joyce to Donate Pay to Local Charities During Shutdown

Press Release

Today, U.S. Congressman Dave Joyce (OH-14) announced that he would not accept pay during the government shutdown, and instead donate it to local charities. Joyce, who strongly opposes the shutdown, will donate his pay to the Cleveland Food Bank and the Ghost Rider Foundation, which helps assist and treat veterans with Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder. Joyce stated:

"I come from a place where accountability matters and therefore, cannot accept pay during this shutdown. I've spent the past days meeting with Democrats and Republicans alike who agree that partisan fights are not worth a shutdown. I will continue to work with both sides to find a resolution and remain committed to being part of the solution, not the problem."
