Original Note:
A government shutdown is not equivalent to defunding Border Patrol. Border Patrol is considered an essential service and will continue to operate during a shutdown. Employees will be paid retroactively once a shutdown has ended. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-government-shutdown-what-closes-what-stays-open-2023-09-21/ https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2023/sep/26/what-government-shutdown-means-2023
