Senator John Curtis has been vocal about the government shutdown which he says is caused by Washington’s dysfunction. “I remain deeply concerned that Congress has grown far too comfortable relying on short-term Band-Aids. Some of my Democratic colleagues asked for over a trillion dollars in new spending just to buy seven more weeks of time. That is not reasonable, sensible, or responsible,” shares Senator Curtis. “Shutdown showdowns are no way to run the greatest nation on Earth. Utahns know the simple truth: you prepare, you live within your means, and you finish the job. My mission is to work with colleagues on both sides of the aisle to build a process that reflects those principles, one that ends the cycle of crisis management and restores public trust.” Senator Curtis concludes by stating that “Utahns deserve a government that is more efficient and effective, one that delivers sensible solutions and real results” and that is something he says he is committed to.
