Democrat Leader Openly Admits Democrats are Intentionally Inflicting Pain on Working American Families for “Leverage”

“Families are going to suffer… but it is one of the few leverage times we have.”

WASHINGTON — Katherine Clark – the #2 Democrat in the House – openly admitted that Democrats are intentionally inflicting “suffering” on hardworking American families for “leverage” purposes in their Democrat Shutdown. Remember, Democrats are using the federal government and American families as ransom to secure $1.5 trillion in new spending, taxpayer-funded health care for illegal aliens, and hundreds of millions of dollars for left-wing news outlets.

As Speaker Johnson has said since Democrats shamefully shut down the government more than 3 weeks ago, “Democrats are perfectly happy to do all this damage while they play political stunts.” The #2 Democrat in the House just confirmed it.
