‘We need to reopen the federal government’ – Press Sec on Shutdown

The White House Press Secretary warns that a prolonged government shutdown by Democrats will delay federal workers’ paychecks, deplete funding for women’s and infants’ nutrition programs, and halt service members’ salaries, urging immediate reopening to avert crisis. Amid $37 trillion in national debt, the President remains committed to healthcare reforms but prioritizes government functionality over migrant care demands, fact-checking claims that link shutdown resolution solely to free healthcare for undocumented immigrants.
