Senator Byron Dorgan Featured in Fox Business News Clip on Government Shutdown

Former US Senator and Arent Fox Senior Policy Advisor Byron Dorgan was interviewed on Fox Business News about the prospect of a government shutdown as the Congress was attempting to negotiate final legislation before they adjourned for the year. 

Dorgan said it wasn’t unusual to have threats of a government shutdown at the end of a session, but he predicted that the sides would reach an agreement and avoid a shutdown. “Members of Congress are concerned about getting blamed for government shutdowns, and the result has been a lot of threats, but very few recent shutdowns,” Dorgan said.
