In regards to Congress reaching out to utility companies to request them not to disconnect or give late fees to furloughed workers, perhaps work on getting those furloughed workers back to work by passing a CR. For 23 days, all members of Congress have held the federal workforce captive, while both sides argue. We’re here suffering because of your inability to do the job you’re elected to do. Explain to me why, as federal employee, we should have to get loans, payment deferments, and exhaust our savings because you can’t do your job? Our livelihood should not suffer because of this.
