Leader John Thune: “The senator from New Mexico is absolutely right; SNAP recipients shouldn’t go without food. People should be getting paid in this country, and we’ve tried to do that 13 times—and you voted no 13 times! This isn’t a political game; these are real people’s lives we are talking about, and you have all just figured out 29 days in that, oh, there may be some consequences?!?”

Thune noted that during the Biden administration, most Democrats supported legislative measures, like the one Republicans are currently trying to pass, to keep the government open.
