So government remains effectively shut down?
Yes, and money saved.
“So government remains effectively shut down?”
I see that as a good thing. No spending, no new laws, etc.
Right now their 'work' should be to rescind bill after bill and dismantle program after program, ultimately balancing the budget and paying off the debt.
Also, closing the border with (already funded DOD personnel would be nice, too.
When you say government is 'shut down' as if it is a bad thing you are just playing into the Rats' hands.
A big part of Gaetz's work in the past two weeks is to get this idea front and center in people's minds.
"So government remains effectively shut down?"
Military readiness aside, given that one of the very few powers that the drafters of the Constitution actually gave to federal government to dictate peacetime domestic policy is to run the US Mail Service, consider that the drafters had intended for intended for feds to operate in shutdown effectively 24/7, most federal domestic now wrongly based on stolen state powers.
"Article I, Section 8, Clause 7: To establish Post Offices and post Roads;"
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
From the congressional record, consider Rep. John Bingham's statement about the vast, 10th Amendment powers of the states to serve the people, Bingham a constitutional lawmaker:
”Simply this, that the care of the property, the liberty, and the life of the citizen, under the solemn sanction of an oath imposed by your Constitution, is in the States and not in the federal government [emphases added]. I have sought to effect no change in that respect in the Constitution of the country.” —John Bingham, Congressional. Globe. 1866, page 1292 (see top half of third column)
"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.
Democratic and Republican Trump supporters need to support hopeful Trump 47 with new state and federal governments by primarying ALL incumbent lawmakers and executives up for reelection in 2024, except for MTG, Gaetz & Company, Jordan (and others?), replacing them with patriots who will support Trump's constitutionally limited power federal government agenda.
After all, lawmakers and executives continue to show that they do not have the patriotism and leadership skills necessary to find legislative support for effective remedies for unconstitutional government policies.

As a side note to this post, consider that probably the main reason that we hear media complaints about the electoral college is the following.
The electoral college is now the only thing stopping the corrupt, constitutionally undefined political parties that have pirated control of state and federal governments from permanently establishing a puppet presidency that will unquestioningly sign unconstitutional taxing and spending bills into law.
