Published | Video Starts at 21:55

Do you ever think that this is lives and not politics and the shutdown posturing can be put aside? I'm so glad you asked the question. We're not pursuing a political strategy. The CR is clean. It doesn't have any Republican priorities on it at all. In fact, we're extending Biden ERA policies and spending. It's exactly what Chuck Schumer gave you impassioned speeches on as recently as March of this year. (21:55–22:00)
