Republican Main Street Partnership Applauds End of the Schumer Shutdown

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The Republican Main Street Partnership (RMSP) today applauded Congress for reaching an agreement to reopen the federal government after weeks of needless gridlock caused by Senate Democrats.

“The Schumer Shutdown was misguided and avoidable,” said Sarah Chamberlain, President and CEO of the Republican Main Street Partnership. “Main Street Republicans in the House acted in good faith to keep the government open and protect critical services for American families. Unfortunately, Senate Democrats chose politics over progress, forcing a shutdown that hurt workers, small businesses, and taxpayers across the country.”

Throughout the shutdown, members of the Main Street remained focused on results — not rhetoric — working to advance commonsense solutions that fund essential government functions, strengthen border security, and keep America safe and competitive.

“Today’s resolution proves that leadership matters,” Chamberlain added. “Main Street Republicans showed that responsible governance and fiscal discipline can prevail, even in the face of partisan obstruction.”

The Republican Main Street Partnership represents the governing wing of the Republican Party, uniting lawmakers and business leaders committed to conservative, results-driven solutions that support growth, security, and opportunity for every American community.
