WASHINGTON (ABC4 News) — As the partial government shutdown enters its 17th day, another Utah representative requests for their pay to be withheld until the government is fully funded.

On Monday, 4th Congressional Representative, Ben McAdams, tweeted that he had requested his pay to have stopped.

He also stated that he voted to end the government shutdown in order to restore access to services for Utahns.

McAdams is part of Utah’s newest delegation in Washington after narrowly being then-incumbent Republican Mia Love in Utah’s battleground 4th district. McAdams joins 3rd Congressional District Representative John Curtis in requesting wages to be withheld.

Curtis introduced the “No Work, No Pay Act of 2019” last Thursday that would prohibit senators and representatives from being paid during periods when any federal agency is shut down due to a lapse in funding appropriated by Congress.
