“Agreed. And aren’t they still getting paid?”
Nope not getting paid. The people that log the hours and cut the checks (direct deposit usually) are all on furlough.
Bottom line is that government workers will all eventually get paid. That is the law and has been the law since 2019 and both parties supported that law. Even Comer just said they will all get paid eventually.

It is against the law for Federal workers to take vacation days during a furlough.
