GOP Lawmaker Suspends Paycheck Until Military Gets Paid Too #SchumerShutdown

The Trump administration is putting America first and the Senate Democrats dug in their heels Friday night, shutting down the government in favor of illegal aliens.

The House budget resolution failed a cloture vote in the Senate on a largely party line vote, 50 to 49.

The Schumer Shutdown went in to effect shortly after midnight Saturday.

The Democrats chose illegal aliens over our wonderful men and women serving in the Military. Let that sink in.

Georgia GOP Lawmaker Jody Hice announced he will suspend his pay until the military gets paid too.

Rep. Jody Hice is a man with integrity.

Hice suspended his pay while Nancy Pelosi and the House Dems went to a fancy Italian dinner in Washington D.C.

Hice tweeted, “If our servicemembers aren’t getting paid, then neither am I. Today, I informed the Chief Administrative Office that I’ll have my pay withheld until a funding bill is passed & gets our men & women in uniform their hard-earned pay. It’s your move, .

Meanwhile our military isn’t receiving a paycheck.

American Forces Network provides entertainment and other services to our service members overseas. Due to Schumer’s shutdown, our men and women overseas currently do not have access to this network.
