I will be calling my representatives and letting them know that I would sooner see the government shutdown than see any of these proposals become law.

Don't you post on Facebook or I'll shut the government down!

Don't you post on Twitter or I'll shut the government down!

Don't you post on Reddit or I'll shut the government down!

Don't you post on Lemmy or I'll shut the government down!

At some point, I start to wonder if they are just searching for an excuse to shut it down?

Also, there are laws about "obstructing the workings of the government", but good luck enforcing them in the current environment, when the enforcers are themselves the ones doing it.
