Shutdown plans would send thousands home with no pay

摘要

Federal agencies' contingency plans in the event of a government shutdown would send thousands of federal employees home with no pay. On Friday, every federal government entity, big or small, released its latest shutdown plans. The documents outline which vital government functions would be kept up and running as well as which services would fall by the wayside during a lapse of appropriations. In addition, many of the plans flesh out who would be furloughed and who would have to work during a government shutdown.
