Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN) introduced the My Constituents Cannot Afford Rebellious Tantrums Handle Your Shutdown Act on Wednesday, nicknaming it the MCCARTHY Shutdown Act after the current House speaker. If passed, the bill would withhold paychecks for lawmakers if a federal government shutdown ensues until Congress passes its budget.
