About 80 percent of them are in the Washington area, either furloughed or working without pay.<\/p>\n<h2>Memo will be shared with Republican lawmakers<\/h2>\n<p>The memo will be shared with Republican lawmakers on Capitol Hill to shape the party&rsquo;s message. At the center of the fight is funding for Affordable Care Act subsidies. The administration has argued, incorrectly, that this money benefits undocumented immigrants.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;The very real economic consequences of a prolonged government shutdown are entirely on Senate Democrats who are holding the federal government, economy, and country hostage to give illegal immigrants free health care,&rdquo; White House spokesperson Kush Desai said.<\/p>\n<p>The White House is pushing Republicans at all levels to stick to a unified response and direct blame at Democrats. Still, recent polls show voters currently fault Republicans more, though many also blame both parties.<\/p>\n<p>The warning comes as economic pressures mount from other areas as well.
