Sen. John Thune on Shutdown: ‘This Is Borderline Obnoxious, This Is Indefensible and Unjustifiable’

‘They are now saying they don’t even want to sit down and talk’

EXCERPT:

THUNE: “Mr. President, this is borderline obnoxious. This is indefensible. It is unjustifiable. And there are American people who are going to hurt as a result of this. And those already who work at these agencies, some 120,000 at one agency alone, that aren't going to get paid, who perform critical security missions for this country to keep the American people safe.”
