    US Senate candidate, NY

    Instead of protecting Dreamers, renewing health insurance for millions of children, and tackling the real problems hurting our families, the president and his enablers in Congress have manufactured a government shutdown.

        Republicans control the White House, the Senate, and the House of Representatives. No matter how they spin this shutdown, we know what happened: They abandoned their responsibility.

        Hey @SenGillibrand I noticed you don’t mention the military, how about you pay my check while I’m defending the country? Cool. Thanks!!!

        Military active and reserve salaries are not affected by the shutdown. Sorry that believing that lie brought you any worry.

        Go and reread that article. It’s towards the top. Also, http://military.com  states the same thing.

        “But the law has big exceptions, notably for military and intelligence operations, national security, and emergencies involving "the safety of human life or the protection of property." ... you will still get paid until February 2 & by then they will have come to some agreement.

        I read all of that. I’ll be standing watch without getting paid. There is no guarantee it will be funded by then. You or any senator wanna switch places with troops overseas or stationed at home? How about all the federal employees that support?

        Sen. Claire McCaskill (D) introduced a measure to ensure pay to military, but Sen. Mitch McConnell (R) blocked it.

        My take on #shutdown is to with hold the salary of congress during shutdown also. Then they will come to a resolution
