Federal Government Shutdown: Paycheck Impact
Many federal workers will miss their first full paychecks on Friday, while others will feel the loss early next week, depending on their agency.

- Lawmakers on Capitol Hill will still collect their paychecks during the impasse, as directed by the Constitution.
- Some lawmakers have stated they won't accept their pay or will donate the money.
Shutdowns typically fall unevenly on those who work for the federal government.
The shutdown, which began on October 1, has no end in sight, leaving federal workers uncertain about their pay.
