During his weekly call with reporters on Thursday, U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) took Senate Democrats to task for their role in the ongoing government shutdown.

During a Thursday appearance on Newsmax's "Newsline," U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Auburn) discussed the ongoing government shutdown led by Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats. The shutdown, according to the lawmaker, is occurring because liberals refuse to pass a clean continuing resolution.

U.S. Rep. Barry Moore (R-Enterprise) took to social media Thursday with a video message, criticizing U.S. Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and his fellow Democrats for causing the ongoing government shutdown.

Congressman Dale Strong (R-Monrovia) is demanding that Senate Democrats vote with Republicans to reopen the government.

U.S. Rep. Dale Strong (R-Monrovia) has issued a strong rebuke of Senate Democrats following Wednesday's government shutdown. According to the lawmaker, liberals in the upper chamber are working to advance their agenda, not the lives of everyday Americans, by forcing the shutdown.

In a letter sent late last week, members of the Alabama legislature asked the U.S. Senate to swiftly pass a short-term funding extension to prevent a government shutdown.

The Alabama State Senate faced its first major slowdown of the 2025 session after State Sen. Rodger Smitherman (D-Birmingham) and State Senate Minority Leader Bobby Singleton (D-Greensboro) took to the floor to prevent the body from considering Senate Bill 5 (SB 5).
