WASHINGTON—Congressman Ron Estes (R-Kansas) released the following statement after President Donald Trump announced he will sign a temporary funding bill to reopen government:

“Since the partial government shutdown began, I have called on Democrats in Congress to sit down with President Trump and address the crisis at our border to reopen government. With today’s temporary agreement by the U.S. Senate and president, I now call on Speaker Pelosi to act in good faith and follow through on commitments to negotiate a long-term solution that secures our border," said Rep. Estes. "I am glad workers and services impacted by the shutdown can now return to normal and will continue working with the president to secure our border once and for all.”

Ron Estes is a 5th generation Kansan and represents Kansas’ 4th Congressional District in the U.S. House of Representatives. He serves on the House Committee on Ways and Means.
