We, the American people, are fed up with our disfunctional government. We believe the only thing that will get our government back on track is if lawmakers feel the impact of the shutdown. Nobody in the Congress, House of Representatives or Senate should receive one penny in pay until the government is functioning once again.

They get paid way to much to argue all day while the rest of us actually have to work for our money. Shut it off.

LONG OVERDUE. Why should they get a paycheck when the government is closed? My husband lost hours because of this mess.
