If you can’t spare a dime for the folks saving lives in a shutdown, what’s the point of government anyway?

This bill cuts through the red and blue noise by securing paychecks for those who run toward danger, not away from it.

Government shutdowns shouldn’t punish those who protect us—supporting this bill isn’t just good policy, it’s patriotism.

Protecting firefighters in a shutdown is common sense; anything less is playing with fire on workers’ rights.

Keep the flames out of politics—steady pay for firefighters during shutdowns is just plain smart.

If people risk their lives, their livelihoods shouldn’t be hostage to budget battles—call it fairness, not politics.
