If it's like the military they will get back pay. Congress is basically on strike and personally I don't think they should get any pay as long as they're on strike. fricks em.

Yes they get paid like normal. They should get docked for each day of the shutdown, but that makes too much sense.

Yes, each one of those idiots will get paid.

If not, they can just raid the sex assault slush fund to preserve themselves for awhile...

You think Bernie would vote to shite shite down if he wasn't getting paid?

They get paid in full, but lose a lot of their support funds, meaning they have to rotate or furlough staff...Capitol Building is mostly shutdown including all the facilities for the staff...except Cogressman's gym and Cafe stay open

Having never read any legislation covering this, I still promise you the gravy train never stops for our elected representatives.

Is there ever a situation where they don't get paid and get optimal benefits?

And all they have to do is serve one term and they get a pension and health care for life.

Do they get paid? That’s like asking do they fall under Obamacare.

All of them can head over to their favorite lobbyist to get them through the tough times.

Yes. Here's a quick one. When people talk about "the government" in everyday parlance, it's really almost entirely about the executive branch of the government. Congress and the Courts have their own deals.
