LAS VEGAS (KLAS) -- Hours after changing her vote and agreeing to join a majority of Senate Republicans in a plan to reopen the government after over 40 days of a shutdown, Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen Monday criticized President Donald Trump and explained why she flipped sides.

Rosen voted “yes” Sunday after not joining a handful of Democratic senators in 14 previous votes in support of Republicans’ plan to reopen the government. She said expired health care tax credits were a sticking point and even clashed with Nevada Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo after he wrote a letter urging her to vote with other Democrats, including Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, in reopening the federal government.

Cortez Masto voted with Republicans to reopen the government 15 times.
