Tonight, Congresswoman Gloria Negrete McLeod (D-Chino) issued the following statement after voting for the bipartisan agreement to open the government and avert default:

"Tonight the House passed a bipartisan agreement to end the government shutdown and avert a fiscal calamity that would have imperiled our economic recovery.

"Moving forward, politics must be put aside. We must work together to do what is best for the American people. We must restore the confidence of America in our government by never allowing Congress to travel this path again. I look forward to return home and continue to work for the constituents of the 35th District."
