All 50 States Will See Devastating Economic Hit in Democrat Shutdown

As Democrats hold the government hostage over their push to fund free healthcare for illegal aliens, the Council of Economic Advisers warns the U.S. could lose $15 billion in GDP each week the government is shut down — a crisis that will ripple across every state. New data underscores the nationwide fallout — with all 50 states likely to face job losses, reduced consumer spending, and disruptions to vital programs like WIC and SNAP. The White House’s updated shutdown website highlights the staggering cost of Democrats’ recklessness with new state-by-state analyses, revealing a crisis that punishes American families. A monthlong shutdown may mean 43,000+ more unemployed Americans. State Est.
