This week, the #TrumpShutdown ended, restoring certainty to families’ lives after 35 days of senseless chaos and pain. House Democrats and Speaker Pelosi visited Jose Andrés’ World Central Kitchen to serve food during the shutdown and welcomed Apple CEO Tim Cook and the mayor of San Fransisco London Breed to the Capitol.
