The shutdown explained in one quote:

"We’re not going to be disrespected .... We have to get something out of this. And I don’t know what that even is." — Rep. Marlin Stutzman, a conservative Republican from Indiana, explains to the Washington Examiner why the House GOP won't just send a "clean" spending bill to the Senate.
