While the government remains closed, more than 800,000 federal employees12,643 workers in Pennsylvaniawill be forced to go without pay through the holiday season, including FBI agents, ATF agents, DEA agents, correctional officers, firefighters and border agents. This is not how government is supposed to work, and it is certainly not how we should treat civil servants who have worked hard to earn their paychecks. It's disappointing that while there is still a deal on the table that was able to pass through the Senate with bipartisan support, the White House is pushing to leave the government unfunded and threaten the paychecks of federal workers over the holiday over funding for an expensive and ineffective border wall. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
