Republican lawmakers piled on.

The House Republican leader, Kevin McCarthy of California, released a video on Twitter of him signing the resolution formally inviting the president to the House.
眾議院共和黨領袖，來自加州的凱文·麥卡錫在推特上發布視頻，視頻中他正在簽署一項正式邀請總統在眾議院發表演講的決議。
"Retweet if you agree that the State of the Union should proceed as planned," Mr. McCarthy wrote.
“如果你同意國情咨文應該按計劃進行，就請轉發這條推文，”麥卡錫寫道。
But hours later, Ms. Pelosi fired back with a letter of her own,
然而，幾個小時后，佩洛西也寫了一封信予以回擊，
telling the president she would not pass a resolution authorizing him to come until the government had reopened.

Ms. Pelosi urged her caucus to stay unified and not to peel off and begin negotiating with the president on his terms,

She also told rank-and-file lawmakers that they should not get "too bogged down" on what legislation was being voted upon —
她還告訴普通議員們，他們不應該在投票表決的法案上“陷得太深”——
a direct message to some of her restive centrist freshmen,
此舉無異于對她那些焦躁不安的中間派新人同僚發出了直接的信號，

這些新人一直在與共和黨新人會面，討論兩黨齊心協力走出政府停擺僵局的辦法。
The appeal seems to have worked;
她的這一呼吁似乎已然奏效；
as they emerged from the closed-door meeting,
因為普通民主黨議員們從閉門會議中走出來時，
rank-and-file Democrats appeared united behind their leaders’ demand that the government open before border security negotiations took place.
似乎已經變得團結一致，一齊支持他們的領導人提出的在就邊境安全談判之前先讓政府開門的要求了。
