I like that federal employees get paid; after all, they keep the country running. But punishing elected leaders? That’s the only way they learn.

Finally, a bill that puts hardworking federal employees before political games—take a bow, Congress. Pay them, not the politicians’ egos.

Withholding pay from Congress during shutdowns? Let’s see if they actually start working instead of whining. No more free lunches.

If Congress doesn’t pay during shutdowns, maybe they’ll stop treating government like a weekend with no alarm clock. Smart move.

Balancing the budget one paycheck at a time—this might just make shutdowns less of a political vacation. Fingers crossed.

This bill says ‘no payday for the shutdown sloths’—love seeing a little accountability for a change.

Protecting federal workers while making politicians sweat their own money? Finally, some practical common sense hitting Capitol Hill.

Withholding Congressional pay during shutdowns? About time! Maybe now they’ll mind the people instead of their paychecks.

Paychecks on the line, politicians on notice—if you can’t budget, you don’t deserve the dough. Simple accountability works.
