[quote=Anonymous][quote] We’re in a shutdown, that’s why they have minimal staff. And if you can’t see the political difference between this and past shutdowns, you are being obtuse.[/quote] Senate staff aren’t being paid, but surely constituent services are an excepted function? I mean, I’m being required to report to work every day without pay, so they should as well. We are in the midst of a constitutional restructuring. The remedy for the executive’s usurpation of spending authority is for Congress to assert its authority and appropriate, preferably by passing actual spending bills, not for Congress to sit on the sidelines because it’s been taken offline by a shutdown. The Dems are playing into OMB’s hands.[/quote]
