“I am pleased the president has reached a deal to end the partial government shutdown so our federal employees in West Virginia and across the country can get back to work. I am grateful to them and their families for all they do every day on behalf of our nation. I look forward to the work of the conference committee and continuing the important discussion on the significant issue of border security.”
