Spanberger responds to Vega’s comments about a government shutdown
Rep. Abigail Spanberger (D-VA07) knocked her Republican challenger Yesli Vega for saying she would support a government shutdown in order to stop President Biden from implementing his agenda.
On Tuesday, Vega was asked by the host of a local conservative talk radio show if she would support a government shutdown in order to bring the Biden administration to a halt. “If push comes to shove, and it comes to this, are you in favor of shutting this government down and grinding Biden's administration to a halt through appropriations and choking the money off as long as it takes – not just a month, two months, as long as it takes – you in favor for that?” the host asked.
