    It’s absolutely irresponsible to shut down the government. A Continuing Resolution is never ideal and is not the way to run a government, but this short-term fix is the best option we have in front of us, right now.

        The ripple effect of a government shutdown has consequences for all Alaskans and most directly on the many federal employees and thousands more that rely on our federal agencies. These are real people and real families that are depending on us. Our responsibility is to govern.

        We need to get our work done and do it quickly. We need to pass this CR and avoid shutting down the government.

        you lost your credibility with people when you voted for the tax scam after being bought by drilling rights.

        It doesn't matter *what* she traded for. She lost her credibility when she made that vote. Now she won't put her foot down to fund CHIP. #Zero

        Please say you've learned your lesson next time you are asked to choose party over country. You are not allowed to complain if you are remaining complicit by doing nothing. Either you will been remembered as part of the solution, or part of the problem.

        Chip could have been funded in September. DACA bipartisan bill was presented to POTUS. This is on you GOP. #phony #CantGovern

        All you have to do is read the replies you received and do the math. I understand that it's not an exact science, but it's not on the Democrats as a single body that is responsible for a potential shutdown and everybody knows it.

        There is a bipartisan DACA deal that would fund the government and protect Dreamers, and it could pass this minute if McConnell put it on the floor. One-month CRs are no way to govern, and there IS a better option. #TrumpShutdown #NoDreamNoDeal

        Maybe it’s time to consider that toeing the party line regardless of the effect isn’t really as important as actual policy. @GOP holds the WH, Senate & House. You have the #s but not the votes?!? Is there a message there?
