Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley Statement on Federal Government Shutdown
MILWAUKEE – Today, Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley issued the following statement after the federal government shut down at midnight.
“Milwaukee County remains committed to becoming the healthiest county in Wisconsin, but as I said in my budget address yesterday, we cannot do it alone. We simply have limited options to address the gaps that a loss of federal funding will create. Congress must end this shutdown and return to the table to work out a government funding deal today. Milwaukee County families should not be casualties of petty political fights and lose the health care they deserve.”
