House votes to pay workers furloughed during government shutdown
Government shutdown has been affecting millions of people. Thanks to the government shutdown hundreds of thousands of people have not gotten paid. The house wants to fix this and pay the people for the government shutdown however yet there is no date of when will the government open again. Lawmakers have been pressured to pay all the federal workers when the government shut down. This bill has gone to the senate however Democrats don't seem to want to approve it. Democrats have rejected the idea of reopening some parts of the government , insisting they will only accept full funding of the government operations. Republicans have been insisting in stopping the affordable care act in order for the rest of the government to open. President Obama has shown no type of willingness to negotiate with republicans until they decide to reopen the government and raise the debt limit. In my opinion the democrats are totally right of not wanting to negotiate with the republicans. It is really absurd how badly they want to take Obama health care act out just so the government can open again. It's a sign of immaturity and they have to be able to step it up and realize this is not a game and government shutdown is affecting billions of people all over the U.S.
