Kent Strang: “This Is the Schumer Shutdown — It’s Time to End Reckless Brinkmanship”

In this interview on The Larry Elder Show, Americans for Prosperity Managing Director Kent Strang explains why Democrats—not Republicans—are to blame for the latest government shutdown. Strang calls the standoff “deeply irresponsible,” urging Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer to “come to the table” and pass a clean continuing resolution to keep federal employees, military families, and air traffic controllers paid. He also discusses the history of shutdowns, how they became a partisan weapon since the Carter era, and why AFP is pushing for the Prevent Government Shutdowns Act to make Washington work again.
