The Federal government has been shut down since just after midnight on Oct. 1. Because the Democrats refuse to negotiate on a budget bill unless the Republicans agree to give illegals free healthcare
More than 750,000 federal workers have been furloughed and ordered not to report to work. Employees deemed essential to public safety, including military personnel, law enforcement officers and air traffic controllers, among others, must work without pay until a budget deal is reached.
Essentially, the meme depicts the Democrats pictured as the jackass (the party's symbol) pulling the nation hostage, until Congress agrees to give illegal immigrants free healthcare.
