There is no need to shut down the entire government. Return to regular order and pass separate appropriation bills. Pass separate bill funding the Immigration Service with a rider the amnesty. If Obama vetoes it then only the Immigration Service is shut down. Also drastically cut back on funding for the White House. It is not that hard.
