Breaking news: The Trump administration is sending messages to federal staff suggesting only those who are working during the government shutdown will be paid when it ends, despite a 2019 law that guarantees pay to furloughed employees, too.
Administration hints furloughed workers may not be paid after shutdown
Agencies are sending messages indicating that workers who are on the job will be paid when the government reopens — with no mention of those on furlough, despite a 2019 law protecting their wages.

Pro Tip (especially for students): If you're writing a cover letter or email for a job and you use a template from Word or from AI, be sure to remove tags like "[Job Title]" and "[Hiring Manager's Name]" from the document. If you don't, your application will very likely be trashed.
Thank you.
