Impact on Workers
The American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) has called for an end to the government shutdown, which has affected hundreds of thousands of federal workers. The union emphasizes the severe financial and emotional toll the shutdown is taking on workers, many of whom are living paycheck to paycheck. The AFGE demands immediate action to support furloughed and unpaid workers.

The AFGE is urging Congress to pass a clean continuing resolution with no political gamesmanship. The union argues that the shutdown is a result of political maneuvering that has no place in the lives of hardworking federal employees. The AFGE's call to action highlights the need for bipartisan cooperation to resolve the shutdown and provide relief to affected workers.
