Republicans have just rejected the Democrats offer to end the shutdown, per CBS

@unusual_whales We are a month into the government shut down and I have yet to see a single way my life has been influenced by it. Keep it closed.

@Vand3l2 @unusual_whales That's cause its not really closed. They continue to operate and provide services with withheld pay. Trust me, a true gov shutdown wouldn't last a day.

@TheJayybirdy @unusual_whales No kidding. Congress is still getting paid despite being soft-laid off. Cut that and watch the fireworks.

@Vand3l2 @TheJayybirdy @unusual_whales I say charge THEM ALL (Rep + Dem) $1,000 A DAY (Weekends Included) until the gov opens up. Watch how fast this gets resolved. And donate the $$ to Food banks and children's schools.
