The Access Fund has a call to action outlining what you can do to help protect public lands (including many important climbing areas) during the shutdown:

Rock and Ice: Action Alert: Help Public Lands During the Government Shutdown

ETA: Also Outside's got an interesting piece on the situation in Joshua Tree and the mystery of why the parks are being kept open:

Have passed this on to my brother, who is an enthusiastic public parks user & rock climber & much better connected folks out on the West Coast who would jump on this.

Thank you for the link - I'll also act on this myself this weekend.
