Today, via Twitter:
Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
Am voting now to ensure furloughed federal employees get paid for time lost due to the govn. slowdown. This will help 800,000 people. 7:55 AM – 5 Oct 13
Uh, do you think that maybe passing a clean continuing resolution in the first place would maybe help those 800,000 people? Evidently not.
And, a retort to the original Twitter:
Isaac Baumann @Lunchboxc
.@RepHartzler Hahahaha, “slowdown?” Really? Are you kidding? 8:06 AM – 5 Oct 13
Representative Hartzler (r) doesn’t kid.
Rep. Vicky Hartzler @RepHartzler
Just voted on a resolution expressing a sense of Congress regarding the need to continue chaplain services for our military during slowdown. 8:08 AM – 5 Oct 13
Still, there’s no sense of the Congress resolution about feeding hungry children. Interesting.
