Democratic Minority Whip Katherine Clark has placed the responsibility on Republicans to find a solution following the failure of the continuing resolution on Wednesday. Clark emphasized that if the government shuts down, the blame would lie with the GOP.
Clark expressed her disappointment with the Republicans, stating that they have once again reneged on the agreements that were previously negotiated. She made it clear that the onus is now on them to come up with a resolution to avoid a government shutdown.
During a press briefing inside the Capitol, Clark highlighted the potential consequences of a shutdown, emphasizing the impact it would have on American families, military families, and seniors. She also made a pointed remark about a billionaire, seemingly referring to Elon Musk, who she believes is influencing the decisions within the GOP.
Clark's message to the Republicans was clear - they hold the power to prevent real harm from befalling the American people, and it is their responsibility to act accordingly. She urged the GOP to take action and find a way forward to avert a government shutdown.
