Democrats are digging in for a long shutdown fight, rallying around their collective disdain for President Donald Trump’s budget director.
Russell Vought has become an unusually prominent director of the Office of Management and Budget. His role in ratcheting up the pressure during the government shutdown — questioning whether federal workers will get back pay when the lapse ends and taking steps to lay off several thousand employees — has given Democratic lawmakers a clear opposition figure.
