Washington, D.C. – Today, Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland (WA-10) issued the following statement after voting against the Republican Continuing Resolution:
“President Trump, Elon Musk, and House Republicans do not care about the American people. They do not care if you get sick, if you get injured, if you can pay your bills, or if you are safe. This Continuing Resolution hands complete power to Musk, does nothing to lower costs, and is an attack on housing assistance, veterans’ healthcare, food for seniors and children, and more.
Trump and Musk are stealing from you to line their own pockets. House Republicans need to speak up, grow a spine and stand up for the American people.”
Congresswoman Marilyn Strickland (WA-10) serves on the House Armed Services Committee and the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. She is Whip of the New Democrat Coalition, Secretary of the Congressional Black Caucus, and is one of the first Korean-American women elected to Congress.
