November 7, 2025
Official Positions

WASHINGTON, D.C. The Republican Study Committee’s (RSC) Steering Committee released the following statement:

”Democrats are responsible for the longest government shutdown in U.S. history—paralyzing our country and deepening the healthcare crisis sparked by Obamacare. House conservatives support a return to regular order accomplished only by a continuing resolution that funds the government at least into January 2026. We are also committed to delivering a health care system that is truly accessible, affordable, and spurs innovation. Congress should reject any extension of the wasteful COVID-era subsidies that fuel fraud and drive up costs.”
