      It’s Day 11 of the #TrumpShutdown + 800K hard-working federal workers are working w/o pay or staying home b/c Trump is using them as a bargaining chip to open the gov’t. I met a PHL mother who works on air traffic control - she wants to go back to work & provide for her family!pic.twitter.com/pOocpOz9Ps

      B/c of workers like her, I’m asking the House to withhold my salary until federal workers receive their hard-earned 💰! It’s absolutely absurd that Trump signed an executive order that freezes federal workers’ pay & has the audacity to say he wants to ‘Make America Great Again.’pic.twitter.com/pX7Xfosn4j

          Kudos to you, sir! It’s been suggested Congress’ pay should be withheld BY LAW if they can’t manage to keep the gov’t running that they’re PAID to run. Maybe that would be incentive enough. A bill to this effect would be roundly welcomed by most voters of any Party, IMHO.

          His base is literally seeing evidence that is the opposite of what he says and yet they still support him. Any man that can stand in front of group of soldiers and lie with a straight face, while being fully aware they know he is lying, is extremely dangerous.

          OK guys - we're taking note of the good ones, right? Here you go - one big fat "heck yeah!" for @RepDwightEvans. THANK YOU for doing the right thing. It's clearly neither easy nor intuitive for many of your colleagues.

          It is important that you all continue to receive your salary or else decisions will be made out of selfish pursuits.

          Holding their salary gives them incentive not to stall. The reason Trump isn’t budging is because the shutdown doesn’t impact him, and he doesn’t care about the people it does impact.
