The Big Dogs Are Done Paying for Gridlock
When the government shuts down, it’s not politicians who pay the price — it’s the people who keep the country running. From air-traffic controllers to TSA agents to families waiting on checks, the real cost of gridlock is felt by working Americans. CommonX calls for accountability and protection for essential workers through the Shutdown Accountability & Essential Worker Protection petition
By CommonX | The X-Files
Every time Congress stalls, regular Americans pay the price. Government workers miss paychecks, air-traffic controllers hold the line, and families watch leaders argue while bills pile up. Enough’s enough.
CommonX is calling for accountability. If the government can’t keep itself open, it shouldn’t be taking our tax dollars. Period.
Our new petition demands a Shutdown Accountability & Essential Worker Protection Act — a plan that protects the people who keep the country running and puts pressure where it belongs: on the decision-makers.
