This is the longest government shutdown in American history.

All because Republicans refuse to lower health care costs or fund food assistance.

Breaking quorum is NOT illegal.

While house rules allow for CIVIL arrest warrants to be issued to compel lawmakers to return, breaking quorum is not a CRIMINAL offense and federal entities have no authority to compel lawmakers to come back to Texas.
