Shipyards keep our fleet afloat, but paying while Congress shirks duty? That’s a slippery slope to government freeloaders.

Protect workers, fine—but no blank checks for shutdowns. Discipline Congress first, then talk pay.

Protecting shipyard paychecks means protecting American families—Congress, stop playing games with their lives.

Keeping the lights on for shipyard workers during shutdowns sounds reasonable—let’s just keep it fair and simple.

Why bail out workers when Congress can get its act together? Incentivize fixing the budget instead of rewarding delay.

Paying workers during shutdowns isn’t charity; it’s common decency—don’t let politics risk their rent.

I’m all for fiscal responsibility, but making sure shipyard workers aren’t left in the lurch is just common sense.

If you work through the shutdown, you shouldn’t be the one who pays the price. Shipyard workers deserve better.
