| Federal workers at risk in Kansas City as shutdown looms |
Michele McNally is the recording secretary for the American Federation of government Employees. She has worked with the Department of Labor for 28 years. McNally said shutdowns are almost imbedded in her line of work.
“I’ve been through two actually shutdowns before this one, but annually we go through this and sometimes it goes down to the brink and we are sure we are not coming back the next day and then something magical happens,” McNally said. AFGE - NCFLL Michele McNally

| 'Total disaster': Some furloughed workers plan to hold garage sales, dip into savings to weather government shutdown - ABC News |
Imelda Avila-Thomas and her husband, who both work for the federal government, suffered a "double whammy" when the government shut down, dropping the household from two incomes to none, she said.
Avila-Thomas, 43, president of union local American Federation of Government Employees (AFGE) 2139 and an employee at the Department of Labor, said she stopped hiring a tutor for her 12-year-old daughter, who has dyslexia, while making plans for a garage sale to sell off some possessions.
The government shutdown, which entered its seventh day on Tuesday, has engendered "desperation and uncertainty," said Avila-Thomas, who lives in San Antonio, Texas. "Any day that goes by, it adds up." AFGE - NCFLL Imelda Avila-Thomas

"We're gonna have to make sure food is available for federal workers so we're gonna try and set up food bank," said Omar Algeciras, vice president of the local chapter of the American Federation of Government Employees. "We're gonna try to figure out how we can assist - especially parents not only looking for food - but also concerned about diapers - baby formula - concerned about childcare," said Algeciras.

| Federal workers describe personal impact of government shutdown |
"Our focus is getting federal workers back to their jobs and helping the American people. Think about it. USDA 50% are furloughed because of the shutdown, whose performing food and safety inspections to ensure we're eating safe food? Department of Labor, 755 have been furloughed, that includes OSHA, office of workers compensation, that's only going to increase injuries..." AFGE-NCFLL Neil Schneider

| Federal workers in Kansas City begin to feel pressure |
“My routine is to go to work and, you know, drop Saddie (daughter) off on the way, that’s my routine, and that’s been taken from me,” Suchman said.
Suchman represents local employees with the Department of Labor, an agency that saw thousands of workers sent home immediately after the shutdown began.
“Nine thousand got sent home right away,” Suchman said. “And to deny those people money for something that has nothing to do with them, especially when last time they passed a law to make sure that never happened.” AFGE-NCFLL Jefferson Suchman
