      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.

          Your party has the house, senate, and the presidency. I find it highly ironic the GOP is still unable to get anything done, and blames it all on the Democrats.

          Or, you know, you could lobby @SpeakerRyan and @SenateMajLdr to put the other budget up for a vote. The one that had the bipartisan effort by @LindseyGrahamSC and @SenatorDurbin Dream Act. But why be logical when you can blame Dems, right?

          When the Senate and House fail to pass a budget for years! it keeps the People’s precious money from being efficiently used in government processes. There’s no plan. It’s hard to fix things. And there’s no way to improve. Because there’s no budget. Looking at you for #Alaska help

          Stop trying to blackmail the nation into building Donald's asinine wall, and you won't need CRs. Stop trying to destroy the lives of Dreamers, and you won't need CRs, you can pass a real, realistic budget, if any of y'all even remember what that looks like. 😡

          You need long-term funding for DACA and CHIP. Also party of Trump needs to stop lying about the shutdown. GOP controls House, Senate & WH and only could pass the #GOPTaxScam to provide windfall for GOP donors and corps. #TrumpShutdown #GOPShutdown #CorkerKickback #ACASabotage

          Difficult to believe that #Senate Democrats would want to shut down the government for American citizens and vote down a 6 year reauthorization of health insurance for American children, all over illegal immigration. #CHIP

          Congratulations, #republicans. The USA has become a moral, political, diplomatic #shithole in the year that yr party has run our govt. Incompetence, confusion, greed, special interests, moral decay, cowardice, inhumanity, ignorance, are the hallmarks of GOP governance. #Resist

          In the time you’ve all spent blaming Democrats, your party, the party that unfortunately controls all branches of government, could have passed legit bills. But you’re using sick kids and DREAMERS as bargaining chips. Get to work and pass a clean bill, not a CR.
