4 days agoWorkers decry Trump officials as out of control' as longest shutdown drags on
It's already been a chaotic year, said Micah Niemeier-Walsh, who works at the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (Niosh). She was initially fired along with most employees at the agency, but reinstated in May after a court intervened to block most of the firings. For many agencies, like the one that I am employed by, we've been effectively shut down for many months already because of the reductions in force that have already happened, and all of the attacks that we've been seeing on the federal workforce, said Niemeier-Walsh, who is also vice-president of the American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) Local 3840. It's become out of control, and I really hope that this shutdown is a wake-up call of how bad things have gotten.

1 month agoThe 10 most visited national parks are open during the government shutdown. Here's what to expect if you go.
Many major national parks remain open to the public during the government shutdown. Still, exactly what "open" means varies from park to park - and it doesn't mean they're running like usual. If a national park is open, it means the public can access it, but some offer more services than others. For instance, some parks are keeping visitor centers open while others aren't. Many aren't collecting entrance fees.
