I have many times called my members of Congress to act to ensure that there is #NoGovernmentShutdown.

That is now suspended because Donald Trump and those with him have already illegally shut down parts of the government to kill hundreds of thousands of people.

Tell Congress to #ImpeachTrump. Now.

When there have been budget disputes in Congress before; I have written #NoGovernmentShutdown.

But right now, Elon Musk & Donald Trump are already trying to shut down and destroy much of the US government.

Require that Congress end that, hold Musk accountable, and #ImpeachTrump; United States.

#NoGovernmentShutdown .

And, yet again: Congress could at any time change the rules that make shutdowns a thing that can happen.

"Conservative media cheers disruptions to transportation, weather forecasts, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, food assistance, and heating assistance during the middle of winter."

The degree to which said media outlets want their viewers to be hurt remains striking.

#NoGovernmentShutdown, USA.

Conservative media is cheering on a government shutdown for Christmas - this week's Media Matters newsletter: https://www.mediamatters.org/media-matters-weekly-newsletter/media-matters-weekly-newsletter-december-20

Yet again, USA:

Demonstrate your members of Congress that there must be #NoGovernmentShutdown .

And remind them that they can at any time act to enforce existing laws against Elon Musk and to #TaxTheRich so that no one person can cause so much trouble.

Elon is now whipping against Speaker Johnson and in favor of a month-long government shutdown starting Friday.

I am reminded that the US government shuts down in 5 days absent action by Congress.

Demonstrate to your members of Congress that there must be #NoGovernmentShutdown, USA.

And do not let the GOP use the threat of a shutdown as extortion to torment children and otherwise hurt people.

#NoGovernmentShutdown

And yet again, USA:

Require that your members of Congress act to change the rules that make government shutdowns a thing that can happen.

So that the GOP cannot keep playing chicken with the jobs of millions of people and with the general welfare.

Yet again, USA:

Demonstrate to your members of Congress that there must be #NoGovernmentShutdown : https://thehill.com/homenews/house/4871424-mike-johnson-government-funding-gop-opposition/

And require that they act to change the rules that make shutdowns a thing that can happen.

Since near 10 million government employees and contractors do not now know who will be able to do their jobs or get paid more than 2 weeks from now.

Re. last repost of @Celeste_pewter :

It is yet again time to tell your members of Congress that there must be #NoGovernmentShutdown , USA.

And it remains way past time to change the rules that make government shutdowns a thing that can happen; so that the GOP cannot keep trying to hold the government's operations hostage to force through unnecessary & extremely anti-democracy bills.
