I’ve seen so much stuff on what it means and how it affects people but I can’t find anything on the reason behind why anyone wants to shut down the government

I’m not American, so I assume I don’t have the full story. But i feel like everytime I hear about government shutdown / not passing budgets it’s republican politicians. Is that accurate? Or do both parties do it equally often?
It’s always, always, always the Republicans.
I try to not point fingers… but yes, a solid 90% of the time it’s the conservative faction holding things up.
Well it’s basically a way to roll back spending the last Congress approved, so of course it would be a cudgel wielded primarily by conservatives.
I’m of the opinion that the 14th amendment makes the whole process moot, but I’m no constitutional scholar.
