KAROLINE LEAVITT: "The Democrats should know that they put the White House and the president in this position." "And if they don't want further harm on their constituents back home, then they need to reopen the government. It's very simple. Pass the clean continuing resolution and all of this goes away." "We would not be having these discussions here at the White House today if not for the Democrats voting to shut the government down. This is an unfortunate consequence."

Republicans control Congress and the White House. It is on them to govern, and if they want Democratic votes, they need to come to the table. If not, Trump and Republicans the pain that the American people will feel from a government shutdown is on them.

The entire country would like to know when Democrats are going to end their tantrum and reopen the government. Democrats need to end this harmful shutdown. They need to vote for the clean, short-term funding bill that would reopen the government and end the chaos today.

SIMPLE FACTS: President Trump told Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries NOT to shut down the government — because it would cause REAL HARM to the American people. They ignored him — and now Democrats have CUT OFF government funding, forcing the administration to triage federal spending just to keep critical operations running. Democrats can make this shutdown stop IMMEDIATELY. All they have to do is pass our clean, 24-page bill to keep the lights on.

Republicans are on the wrong side of the shutdown. They control the White House, the House and the Senate, but they still need Democrats to keep the government open. All we’re asking for is their help to save healthcare for millions of people about to lose coverage.

If some people would put down their juice boxes and crayons and do a little reading, they would realize the Senate needs 60 votes to reopen the government. This is a Democrat shutdown, and they know it.

Trump: “The Democrats who oppose this only because they want to go the opposite way. They'd like to pack the court. They want to put on 21 people. They want to pack the court, pack the Supreme Court, maybe they should do it. Maybe it'd be better off if they did it.”

Republicans are unified in our strong desire to reopen the federal government. All of us – Senate Republicans, House Republicans, and President Donald J. Trump – want this Democrat shutdown to end. We need five more Senate Democrats to put an end to this, and we’re going to keep voting until they do.
