  • Self-Inflicted Wounds the 2013 Government Shutdown and the Internal Divisions of Congressional Republicans
    Self-Inflicted Wounds The 2013 Government Shutdown And The Internal Divisions Of Congressional Republicans Anssi Klemetti Pro Gradu Thesis Contemporary History The University of Turku January 2017 UNIVERSITY OF TURKU Department of Philosophy, Contemporary History and Political Science Faculty of Social Sciences KLEMETTI, ANSSI: Self-Inflicted Wounds. The 2013 Government Shutdown And The Internal Divisions Of Congressional Republicans. Pro Gradu Thesis, 102 pages, 6 annex pages. Contemporary History January 2017 Abstract: The aim of this thesis is to look into the 2013 government shutdown in the United States of America, which lasted from October 1 to October 16, with the purpose of studying the internal divisions that were created or made visible within the Congressional manifestation of the Republican Party. The main sources for the thesis are a pair of shutdown-inducing letters from Mark Meadows and Mike Lee to Congressional leaders, the final tallies of the votes that ended the shutdown, as well as media sources. The initial shutdown-related division was made apparent in the summer of 2013 between the 14 Senators and 80 Representatives supporting through the Meadows and Lee letters a "defunding strategy", which ultimately led to the shutdown, and the 32 Senators and 152 Representatives who opposed using said strategy to combat President Obama's healthcare reform. The final division was between the 18 Senators and 144 Representatives who opposed the final compromise that ended the shutdown and the 27 Senators and 87 Representatives who voted in favor of reopening the government. Republicans who did not sign one of the letters and who voted for the final compromise were more likely to have experience of previous government shutdowns; more likely to have seniority over their colleagues; more likely to be ideologically moderate; less likely to be affiliated with the Tea Party; and more likely to hail from competitive districts or states, while the opposite is true for the Republicans who had signed one of the letters and who opposed the final compromise.
