Then, after all the hand-wringing, cable news count- down clocks and uncertainty, things headed back to normal on Monday afternoon. In a provision that is fair to the many federal workers who were furloughed — and arguably unfair to taxpayers — employees who were prohibited from working over the weekend and Monday will be paid for those lost hours just as if they were on the job. Cases can be made as to which party or politician was at fault for the impasse, but that misses the true problem: Congress’ inability to pass a budget. In Wyoming, lawmakers take on the difficult but fairly straightforward task of crafting a budget every other year. They figure out how much money they have available, then divvy it up while making sure not to spend more cash than is available. Legislators will begin that process during the upcoming Budget Session, which is set to start Feb. 12 and wrap up by early March. Any temptation state legislators might feel to over- spend is blocked by the Wyoming Constitution, which requires a balanced budget. Any thought they might have of lollygagging on the budget is prohibited by another provision that limits how many days they can be in session. Congress could use similar restraints on its work. Rather than pass an annual budget, senators and representatives in Washington, D.C., routinely pass last-minute stopgap funding measures known as “continuing resolutions.” The agreement reached on Monday will only provide enough funding to last through Feb. 8. Then, theoretically, Republicans and Democrats could do this all over again. One provision inserted into Monday’s deal almost seems to anticipate another shutdown — specifying that if there’s another lapse in funding this year, feder- al employees will still be paid for the time they’re fur- loughed. In other words, taxpayers would once again pay government employees to literally do nothing.
