    1. It Depends. Most employers have policies in place to cover various situations. In this case there are clear policies put in place by the board of directors (Congress) for this exact situation, so the answer is YES.

      To do anything else would be illegal, but it seems a lawless felon wouldn’t really care, would he?

  1. It is a way to force people to find other jobs in an economy that is being ruined by the same self absorded individual who wants to place his image on dollar bills and coins and name everything after himself.

  2. JW and Thomas overreacting on opposite ends of the spectrum. Dan is correct, this isn’t just make it up as you go. It’s the felon in chief’s very awkward and childish effort to pressure democrats. Unfortunately maggot voters elected someone too stupid to understand the difference between layed off and furloughed and genuinely wouldn’t understand the question
    Maggots want to think government bureaucrats are not getting paid, but here is the reality: Andre Carson and his staff won’t lose a dime. Do you know who is in danger? Maintenance workers, park rangers, military personnel. Yea maggots!!
