On September 8, The Wall Street Journal published an editorial, “Government Shutdown Redux,” in which it also argued against a government shutdown.

On September 12, the Journal published our letter in part–its final paragraph. The abridgement of the letter did not distort its meaning and we appreciate the Journal’s willingness to publish at least a portion of it.
