Federal workers:
About 800,000 federal employees could see their paychecks jeopardised.
Already hit hard by several unpaid furlough days caused by sequestration
this year some workers have begun lobbying to receive back pay in the event
of a shutdown. While Congress agreed to retroactively pay them during
previous shutdowns, the fractured nature of this Congress makes such a step
unlikely.
US military
The military's 1.4 million active-duty personnel would stay on duty, but
their paychecks would be delayed. The US House proposal to delay Obamacare
for a year – passed early Sunday morning but almost certain will be killed
in the Senate – included a provision to ensure troops' paychecks continue.
About half of the Defense Department's civilian employees would be
furloughed.
Science
Nasa will furlough almost all of its employees, though it will continue to
keep workers at Mission Control in Houston and elsewhere to support the
International Space Station, where two Americans and four others are
deployed. The National Weather Service would keep forecasting weather and
issuing warnings and the National Hurricane Center would continue to track
storms.
Travel
Federal air traffic controllers would remain on the job and airport
screeners would keep funneling passengers through security checkpoints,
though some airports have warned of delays at security. Federal inspectors
would continue enforcing safety rules.
The State Department would continue processing foreign applications for
visas and US applications for passports, since fees are collected to finance
those services. Embassies and consulates overseas would continue to provide
services to American citizens.
Courts
Federal courts would continue operating normally for about 10 business days
after the start of a shutdown, roughly until the middle of October. If the
shutdown continues, the judiciary would have to begin furloughs of employees
whose work is not considered essential. But cases would continue to be
heard.
The US supreme court is scheduled to begin its new term on October 7. In
previous government shutdowns, it continued to operate as normal.
Mail
Deliveries would continue as usual because the US Postal Service receives no
tax dollars for day-to-day operations. It relies on income from stamps and
other postal fees to keep running.
District of Columbia
The city, which does not have autonomy over its own budget, briefly flirted
with the idea of using the potential shutdown to make a stand when mayor
Vince Gray moved to designate all city employees "essential," thereby
avoiding the cuts in services like libraries that were expected. Some
District politicians were willing to go so far as to get arrested over the
show of defiance, but on Friday the city's lawyers approved using a $144m
contingency fund to make up the difference if the federal government funds
dry up.
Homeland security
The majority of the Department of Homeland Security's employees are expected
to stay on the job, including uniformed agents and officers at the country'
s borders and ports of entry, members of the Coast Guard, Transportation
Security Administration officers, Secret Service personnel and other law
enforcement agents and officers. US Citizenship and Immigration Services
employees would continue to process green card applications.
Veterans services
Most services offered through the Department of Veterans Affairs will
continue because lawmakers approve money one year in advance for the VA's
health programs. Veterans would still be able to visit hospitals for
inpatient care, get mental health counseling at vet centers or get
prescriptions filled at VA health clinics. Operators would still staff the
crisis hotline and claims workers would still process payments to cover
disability and pension benefits.
But those veterans appealing the denial of disability benefits to the Board
of Veterans Appeals will have to wait longer for a decision because the
board would not issue any decisions during a shutdown. |

只是奥巴绑架了一大群无脑的'人民'
要是奥巴说国库有10000亿，大家分了买酒喝好不好？这群'人民'一定会同意，谁不同

的，当年美国卷入二战也是很多人反对，但是从美国利益上看，局部参战的利益是最大的
三峡是个joke吧，有参加过三峡论证的'专家'就在重大，那个过程不摆了，这东西放到
美国是谁支持谁下台的事情。
