Don't see a problem.
Doesn’t the government shut down 2 days a week every week as well as shutting down on a generous holiday schedule?
And doesn’t Congress and the Senate shut down over a hundred days a year?
Shut it down and DO NOT pay congress and senate members or staffers for the days it is shut down. Do not pay for any of their residences or incidental costs they run up.
As soon as Sheila Jackson Lee has to buy her own grape drink, or Maxine Waters has to put her wig on by herself they will change their tune.
