What would it take to

Pass a bill that during shutdown ONLY the ones that voted FOR the shutdown will lose their salary during the shutdown. (ofcourse i know it will effect federal workers as well) but i mean add this as well, so the shut down as is will remain the same EXCEPT the persons that vote to shut down are added to the federal workers list. Is this possible?

Do people vote directly for a shutdown? When would it be voted on ? Who would vote for such a bill?
