The 7 Republicans who voted against back pay for furloughed workers

[Schifference]

The House and Senate this week voted overwhelmingly to provide back pay to about 800,000 federal workers who are going without paychecks because of the partial government shutdown.

But seven lawmakers — all House Republicans — opposed the measure. Those "no" votes came from Reps. Justin Amash (Mich.), Andy Biggs (Ariz.), Paul Gosar (Ariz.), Glen Grothman (Wis.), Thomas Massie (Ky.), Chip Roy (Texas) and Ted Yoho (Fla.).

President Trump on Thursday indicated he would sign the bill, leading to its passage by unanimous consent in the Senate later that day. On Friday, the House cleared the measure in a 411-7 vote.

Paul Gosar is a good egg, but I would vote to disband the agencies with severance pay to all,
they could then go out into the workplace and find ethical work.

What do they tell you when you get fired in private sector? Just suck it.

Massie and Amash always good. Chip Roy off to a good start.
