  5. #Hunger & #Cold Loom as #Shutdown Imperils Funding for #Antipoverty Programs

    As the shutdown nears the one-month mark, the lapse in federal funding is a looming crisis for vulnerable Americans who depend on government assistance for basic needs like #groceries & #heating.

  9. #Republican #House Speaker #MikeJohnson has refused to negotiate with #Democrats until they first agree to reopen the government.

    This is now the second-longest #shutdown.

    The longest shutdown occurred during Trump’s first term over his demands for funds to build the US-Mexico border wall. That one ended in 2019 after 35 days.

  17. During a hearing on Oct 15, Illston said the layoff notices that started going out on or around Oct 10 appeared to be politically motivated and not well thought out. About 4,100 layoff notices have gone out, some sent to work email addresses that furloughed employees are not allowed to check. Some personnel were called back to work, without pay, to issue layoff notices.
