Larry Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Just out of curiosity, exactly which parts of the government is shut down right now? I know three people who are dealing with Social Security right now. And apparently those offices are open. So what's shut down? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DHS I think is the main one, my offices have a chunk not working but contractors and essential personal still work. National Park Service as well, not sure of all of the others.

I know it's not big shakes to most, but the National Archives has been closed since December 22. The Smithsonian, both the museums and the National Zoo, has just run out of extra funding and will close its doors. There is something kinda sad about the doors to the Declaration of Independence and the US Constitution being closed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure DHS isn;t shut down. Pretty sure I would have heard that, if they were. They might well be "working for free". And I could certainly see problems with that.

One thing Democrats have talked about doing is funding everything but DHS for the year and then funding DHS temporarily to keep from giving up money for the wall.

The biggest hits are to agencies like Interior, Agriculture, the IRS, etc. I'm furloughed currently and under the DHS banner. Uniformed personnel such as CBP Officers, Border Patrol Agents, etc. are all working unpaid. Support staff, such as attorneys, Human Resources, Internal Affairs, my office, etc...those are the folks being told to stay home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fergasun Posted January 3, 2019 Author Share Posted January 3, 2019 Number one, let's review. FY2017, no wall money, GOP controls both houses, no problem!!! FY2018, no wall money, GOP controls both houses, no problem!!! FY2019, no wall money, Dems in power, hey I really want my wall money!! Congress needs to forget Trump and start talking veto override. Because neither party really thinks he should get wall money. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PleaseBlitz Posted January 3, 2019 Share Posted January 3, 2019 Going out for a drink with a friend around 6. Friend works for the Department of Labor, but is not impacted by the shutdown. We have agreed that if we run into anyone that is furloughed, we will be buying them a round. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
