How to use shutting in a sentence?

1. Hillary Clinton:

   With political people … there was a lot of complaining about Dodd-Frank, but there was also a need to do something for political reasons, if you were an elected member of Congress and people in your constituency were losing jobs and shutting businesses and everybody in the press is saying it's all the fault of Wall Street, you can't sit idly by and do nothing.

2. Bill Huizenga:

   It’s clear that Michigan is a hot spot for COVID-19. To prevent further spread and save lives, the Biden administration should adopt a surge strategy and increase vaccine allocation to Michigan instead of advocating for shutting down the economy, manufacturers, restaurantsand small businesses alike are still trying to recover from the mandated government shutdowns over the past year.

3. Debbie Lesko:

   Obviously Arizona and Mexico are huge trading partners, so shutting down trade would have an adverse effect on Arizona's economy.

4. Peter Collignon:

   We acted much earlier than the likes of Italy and the United States, we had much less community transmission and we still shut our borders and implemented social distancing policies such as shutting down bars and pubs, and did much more testing.

5. Thomas Robb:

   Overall, we do like Donald Trump nationalist views and Donald Trump words about shutting down the border to illegal aliens. It’s not an endorsement because, like anybody, there’s things you disagree with, but Donald Trump kind of reflects what’s happening throughout the world. There seems to be a surge of nationalism worldwide as nationals reclaim their borders.
