government shutdown

Federal lawmakers continue to debate whether to extend tax credits driving down Affordable Care Act insurance costs. Without them, many Washingtonians may risk going uninsured.

The shutdown is being felt across Thurston and Pierce counties. Roughly 14,000 federal workers aren't getting paychecks, and about 35,000 households rely on SNAP benefits.

Federal grants fund research projects at colleges and universities throughout Washington state. The shutdown has paused the reviews necessary for their approval.

The states are among many that are going to court to force the federal government to use emergency reserve money to prop up the federal food assistance program.

Last week, the food bank saw 52 new households turn out to receive groceries, the majority of them federal employees.

U.S. Rep. Emily Randall held an event in Bremerton to hear about potential impacts on federal workers who are furloughed or are working without pay.

Workers laid off because of the government shutdown may be eligible for state employment benefits.
