02:19Let's get to it, and we'll begin with a few scheduling announcements today.
02:23President Trump will be hosting the Canadian Prime Minister, Mark Carney, tomorrow for a working meeting here at the White House.
02:31On Thursday, the President will host his eighth Cabinet meeting alongside his incredible team.
02:36Also on Thursday afternoon, President Trump will host the President of Finland, Alexander Stubb, for a working meeting here at the White House.
02:45The President also wanted me to relay his congratulations to Japan for electing their next Prime Minister, a highly respected person who also happens to be the first female to hold the position for our great ally.
02:58While President Trump continues to negotiate peace deals, meets with world leaders, and celebrates the 250th birthday of our United States Navy, as you saw he and the First Lady do just yesterday, Democrats, unfortunately, are continuing to play political games.
03:15And we are now in day six of the Democrat federal government shutdown.
03:20Millions of American federal workers are under enormous financial stress as a result, wondering how they will pay their bills and take care of their families.
03:30If the Democrats do not vote to open the government tonight, federal workers will not receive their next full paycheck.
03:37Additionally, the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children will run out of federal money very soon.
03:44This program provides vouchers to buy infant formula, fresh fruits and vegetables, and other healthy foods for low-income families.
03:53It can be easily fully funded if Democrats simply vote tonight to reopen the government.
03:59Also, our incredible military service members who risk their lives to preserve and defend our country are now working without pay and will miss their next paychecks if this Democrat shutdown does not end tonight.
04:12The Republican-backed, clean and nonpartisan funding bill fully funds this important food aid program, gets our troops paid, and reopens the government.
04:22So all of this begs the question, what is the Democrat ongoing shutdown truly about?
04:28The sad truth, we believe, is that the Democrats intentionally shut down the government and are inflicting this pain on American citizens to try and demand free health care for illegal aliens.
04:39Of course, this is an indefensible and truly radical policy to be in favor of, let alone to use as the primary reason to shut down the United States government.
04:49So the Democrats and their allies are desperately lying about their true motivations.
04:54We have to set the record straight with the facts so the American people understand what's really at play here.
04:59House Republicans passed a clean and nonpartisan funding bill to keep the government open and ensure our troops and other hardworking Americans are paid.
05:08Every single House Democrat, except one, voted against this clean and nonpartisan funding bill.
05:15Senate Republicans have subsequently tried to pass this same clean funding bill four separate times, and they will do so again tonight.
05:21To fully pass it to be sent to the President's desk for signature, and the President is ready to sign this bill to reopen the government as soon as it is sent to his desk.
05:32Yet every single Senate Democrat, except three, have voted against this clean and nonpartisan funding bill.
05:38The Democrats' current position is that the only way the American government can reopen is if illegal aliens can get free health care.
05:45Don't take my word for it, just look at what's inside of the Democrats' proposal to reopen the government.
05:51Their funding proposal would result in nearly $200 billion spent on health care for illegal aliens and other non-citizens over the next decade.
06:00To put this in perspective, $200 billion is enough money to fund the entire Children's Health Insurance Program,
06:07which provides health insurance to low-income children and women.
06:11Under the Democrats' proposal, the millions of illegal aliens who improperly were granted asylum and paroled under the Biden administration
06:19would once again be allowed to receive Medicaid benefits.
