I’ve voted for back pay after previous shutdowns, b/c those bills were limited to the existing shutdown. If people will automatically be paid after any future shutdown, as this bill requires, then why send them home and why not pay them on time? This bill was not properly vetted.https://twitter.com/justinamash/status/1083786327441723393 …

You basically are arguing that the cruelty of threatening the livelihood of federal workers is what makes shutdowns useful.

(to be clear, I think there's reasonable concerns with paying the executive during a shutdown, it's just that your uttered arguments for it are bonkers)
