as far as lawmakers paychecks none of them should get a paycheck until they pull their head out their ass but Trump will never be able to pull his head out so it's too far up there

The money was already allotted for snap benefits. Withholding them is ILLEGAL. That’s why 25 attorneys general are suing Trump.

This is a Republicon/Trump shutdown. Part of the reason these weasels shut the House down is because the Arizona Rep who won her special election will be the deciding vote to release the Epstein files. Protecting pedophiles and taking health care away from poor people while a ballroom made out of gold is being built. This is the Republicon way!

they shouldn't receive pay or any type of benefit related to their offices until a balanced budget has been created and passed. then the lot of them can resign without any kind of 'retirement ' package.

No member of Congress or their staff should be paid during a government shutdown. No recess or adjournment of Congress should occur during a government shutdown. Every member of Congress should be required to be in their seat, and Congress should remain in session 24/7 during a government shutdown.

No paychecks for members of Congress and no benefits either. No back pay

If their paychecks are delayed one day no worries they will undoubtedly pass a stopgap spending bill the very next day.That is if Johnson will actually let them come back from their vacation he is so afraid of doing his job and swearing in the representative from Arizona he won't even let them come back in session just another republican way of suppressing the voters.

Good! My opinion and solution is a simple one. Unless you are using PTO, if you are a house cabinet member and/or politician, you should NOT be paid at all. You are failing to do your job, and anyone that actually works for a damn living can tell you one thing. WE DONT GET PAID IF WE ARENT WORKING!! So why do you guys think you're special. Your pay and job eligibility should be based on performance as well. Do a good job, get paid and promoted, do a shitty job, and get removed! Same as all us working class taxpayers. These damn politicians get a comfy job and sit in it for 30+ years doing absolutely NOTHING! This shutdown is simply the proof. I go even one step further. If our government is shut down, WE SHOULDN'T PAY STATE/FED taxes, and taxed time period should reflect ONLY the time the government is open!

Take all pay away from all of them until benefits are given. Congress will still get paid, that's bull when they aren't working. People keep saying people wouldn't need snap if they worked, so why is Congress getting paid if they are not working

I think both parties should lose pay and benefits till something is past with no back payment for the shutdown it's time for all to communicate and get there act together to serve their party.The president doesn't own the parties the party owns him.😲

It’s about time. In fact, they should have to donate their paychecks to their states’ food assistance program for the children, until the shutdown is over. They should not get anything from the shutdown since they are at home on a non-planned vacation.
