Workers Impacted By Government Shutdown Plea For Help On GoFundMe
- 5 years ago
Wednesday marks day 19 of President Donald Trump’s government shutdown.
Gizmodo reports, with no end in sight, over 800,000 American government workers have been furloughed or are going to work, but will not receive a paycheck until the shutdown ends.
Many people have turned to GoFundMe, a crowdfunding website, to ask for assistance in paying for essentials like food, medicine and rent. They also talk about the stress that they've endured throughout the shutdown process.
