Ban senators’ pay during government shutdowns.

The U.S. Senate unanimously passed a bill filed by Sen. John Kennedy that would stop senators from getting paid during a shutdown.

If the federal government shuts down, senators would not receive a single paycheck until funding is restored.

No funding. No paycheck. That’s how it should be.

It's after 3AM, and democrats have rammed another budget through in Springfield while most people are sleeping. My statement on the proposal below. ⬇️

It’s 3:14 am, we just passed the last of the budget bills (over bipartisan opposition, including my no vote). We are now debating the new Bears bill.

This is NOT the same bill or even concept sent over from the House.

I will be voting no based on the terrible process used, concerns over government debt, and the fact that this bill simply is not ready. There were better paths, but the supermajority picked their path and knew they could power it through the Senate. I have no doubt it will pass over to the House.

Side-note: because of the midnight process, we don’t even know if the Bears themselves support the complete change in approach that is in the bill. That’s…a little crazy. But that has been this whole process!
