Congresswoman Julie Fedorchak, a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, addressed recent political developments in a series of posts on October 9, 2025. Her statements focused on government shutdown debates, party voting patterns on budget resolutions, and international negotiations with China.

In her first post at 17:31 UTC, Fedorchak criticized Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and Senate Democrats for their stance on government shutdowns. She wrote, "For decades, @SenSchumer has said shutting down the government for politics was wrong. Now, he’s changed his tune to cave to his far-Left base. It’s past time for @SenateDems to end the political theater and stand up for our troops."

Later that day at 19:32 UTC, Fedorchak commented on Democratic voting behavior regarding budget resolutions. She stated, "99% of Democrats voted yes 13 times on a clean Continuing Resolution under Joe Biden. The only thing that has now changed is the President in power. Democrats would rather play political games to oppose @POTUS than stand up for hardworking families. Unacceptable."

In her final post at 20:55 UTC, Fedorchak shifted focus to international relations and trade negotiations with China. She expressed support for former President Donald Trump’s approach to such negotiations, saying, "If anyone can get China to the table to negotiate a fair, long-term agreement, it’s President’s Trump. Hopeful for a deal soon!"

Continuing resolutions are temporary measures used by Congress to fund federal agencies and prevent government shutdowns when formal appropriations have not been enacted. Government shutdowns have been recurring points of contention between political parties in recent years, often leading to public disputes over responsibility and policy priorities.

Negotiations between the United States and China have historically covered trade imbalances and intellectual property issues. Previous administrations have attempted to secure long-term agreements addressing these concerns.
