ICYMI: RSC Steering Committee Calls for an End to the Democrat Shutdown

November 6, 2025

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In Case You Missed It: Leaders of the Republican Study Committee, the largest Congressional caucus with 189 Republican members, released a statement today calling for an end to the Democrats’ shutdown through a continuing resolution that funds the government at least into January 2026.

The statement, first covered in Fox News, also urges Congress to reject extending Biden-era COVID subsidies while delivering a health care system for Americans that is truly accessible, affordable, and spurs innovation.

Read the full statement below:

”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.” - RSC Steering Committee
