I guess the National Guard will be deployed and elections cancelled?

“Democratic shutdown”? LOL! Which party is in power?

So is the state going to pay snap benefits or just supply some more canned beans to the food banks?

It's a problem, yes, but what will having a state of emergency do? Will he call out the National Guard to distribute food?

I believe it allows to reallocate funds towards snap benefits so that they aren’t cancelled or delayed

Doing what, declaring state of emergency to pay out snap benefits? No

He could have done it without the press release that the White House wrote for him. I would have respected that.

Blocking what?

What are the Republicans trying to push?

Dems are trying to keep tax cuts that make health insurance cheaper for millions, get a reversal of Trump's cuts to Medicaid, and oppose spending cuts to government health agencies.

Why can't Republican find 15 Senators willing to join Democrats to reopen the government?

Youngkin is playing politics with hungry family's lives, colliding with Occupant Trump to violate the Hatch Act.

Democrat senators are the ones keeping it shut down. The republican House and republicans in the senate have all voted to end it. The democrats are the holdouts here.

Yes leader Schumer needs to get those republicans senators to vote! Teh democrats majority needs 60 votes to pass anything in ten senate.

The declaration is written as if it were copied and pasted from a Trump post on Truth Social. For the Republicans to come on here and insist that it’s not politically motivated is laughable on its face. Can we please be reasonable and straight with ourselves and others for a change?

Republicans own all branches of government. It is their duty to work - not close the House week after week- to negotiate and get a deal. Instead they are doing literally nothing and trumps agencies are violating the Hatch Act with the political messages about the closure. Youngkin playing politics by blaming Democrats is offensive and I can’t wait until that Trump sycophant is gone from VA government.
