This one will take a while. Probably another 5-6 weeks. Maybe sooner if they don’t fund military pay, maybe in 3 weeks then so everyone gets paid by the end of the month.
Maybe call your senator... they just have to agree to a simple extension and that's it. One side is putting wish list demands on it, I won't say which. But if your congressperson is on that side, a call could help.
"Wish list demands" is a weird way to frame it.
Over the past 20 years, the length of the shut down has increased at a moderate rate. The longest shut down was under Trump. And it was over the border wall. The issues at hand today make the border wall look trivial. My guess is at least 40 days but I don’t see it. Going past 50.
And that ask for the wall was what? $5B?? Dems have a $1.5TRILLION plus up they’re hanging onto. Sheesh! Could end up with Reps going “Nuclear” and changing the voting rules, but they’ve got broad public support for NOT caving to the Dems
End of the month. I think this will rival the 35-day shutdown in 18-19
