Maybe it’s because only 6 Democrats joined in to vote with Republicans the first time and only 10 the second time!

Freshman Congressman Dan Crenshaw called out the silence from the media on reporting the concerted effort by the GOP to get a paycheck to the fed employees:

House GOP voted again to pay federal employees. This time just ten Democrats joined us:

A furloughed federal employee thanked Crenshaw for his efforts:

Yes! Thank you so much for trying. Furloughed here, and while yes, the lack of a paycheck isn’t ideal-I support our president and understand what’s at stake.
