WASHINGTON — The Republican National Committee engaged in a political stunt Wednesday, with Chairman Reince Priebus offering to give the government around $150,000 to keep the World War II Memorial open for 30 days during the ongoing government shutdown.

“We’re learning from what’s happening,” said Bernadette Lucas, director of the Common Core Technology Project. “These bumps in the road should not get in the way of our students’ future.”
