Later that day, at 17:15 UTC, Rep. Roy commented on what he perceives as Democrat obstruction efforts regarding the clean CR. He stated, "They [Democrats] don't want the lights to be on," suggesting that some members of the executive branch are serious about fulfilling the election mandate given to the President to end certain practices.

At 18:08 UTC, Rep. Roy addressed discussions around continuing resolutions, pointing out that every Democrat voted for a previous CR in December except one who may have been absent or otherwise engaged.
