Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman on

Sunday voiced criticism of his own party over the ongoing government shutdown,

saying Democrats are sending the

“wrong message” in their handling of the budget impasse.

“Shutting our government down.

That’s the wrong message for the world, for Americans as well, too,”

Fetterman told “Sunday Morning Futures” host Maria Bartiromo.

“I don’t care whose that blame is.

It’s not about a blame game. It’s about opening this government, having this conversation,

and literally let’s address these kinds of healthcare issues as well too,” he went on.
In an interview with Fox News, Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman said he will “never

” support a government shutdown,

criticizing lawmakers who refuse

to negotiate and urging both

parties to reach an agreement to end the stalemate.
