Join me tomorrow
We're 21 days into the government shutdown. While I'm holding the line for an agreement that protects healthcare, lowers costs, and reins in Trump's policies, conservatives continue to not bother to show up for work.
Check out the video below to hear more about what a government shutdown means, how we got here and what comes next:
I am committed to making sure we get the government opened again as soon as possible and we do it with a funding agreement that serves our community. Hearing from you makes sure that I am carrying your perspective and needs to these discussions. If your healthcare costs are increasing, or you have been negatively impacted by this shutdown, please share your story with me so I can keep fighting for you.
REMINDER: Secretary of State Tobias Read will be joining my next telephone town hall on Wednesday, October 22 at 5:45 pm PT. We'll talk through Trump's attempt to send the National Guard into Portland, the government shutdown, and the ongoing fight to defend our right to vote from home.
There are two ways to join:
- Sign up to receive a call here.
- Stream the event live at Dexter.House.Gov/Live
I hope to hear from you soon.
Onward,
Maxine Dexter, M.D.
Member of Congress
