Ann Marie Buerkle to U.S. Senate: Just do your job, or don't get paid

Washington -- Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle, frustrated with the U.S. Senate's lack of progress toward a fiscal 2012 budget bill, introduced her own bill today that would cut off the money that keeps congressional leaders and their budget offices operating.
In what may amount to nothing more than a political stunt, Buerkle introduced the "Just Do Your Job Act of 2011" in the House.
Syracuse.com is taking some flak from the Buerkloids for suggesting that Ann Marie Buerkle's bill is just grandstanding.
So, if it's not a stunt, then what is it? Definitions of "stunt" include variants on the following:
something done to attract attention or publicity,
anything spectacular or unusual done to gain publicity
