Larson Again Votes to Re-Open Federal Government

Washington, D.C. - Today, Rep. John B. Larson (CT-01) voted in favor of two bills that would reopen the government. Larson commented:

"Every day the government remains shuttered, the consequences become more severe and the burden placed on federal workers and contractors becomes heavier," said Larson. "It is unconscionable that our air traffic controllers, TSA agents, border patrol, and other dedicated federal employees are set to miss a second paycheck. The House has voted ten times this year to reopen the government. I urge every Senator to support the Continuing Resolution tomorrow that would reopen the government and end the shutdown now."
